- Abstract
- This project focuses on the process behind the process of psychotherapy and spiritual direction. Using the concept of 'levels of truth' from Anne Wilson Schaef's book, Women's Reality, as the organizational backbone, three levels of relationships are addressed. Level one outlines the congruent interface between psychotherapy and spiritual direction where emotional needs and the spiritual search are one in the same. Level two outlines the incongruent areas where both disciplines stand in a relationship of tension. Four areas are explored: awakened consciousness, ego-negation, self-knowledge, and discernment. The bridge building chapter integrates the theory of Winnicott, Rizzuto, and Meissner with the thinking of Needleman, Edwards and Jones. Level three is a synthesis of both disciplines. The common meeting ground is in Winnicott's 'potential space'.
