Abstract

The areas addressed in this paper are the nature of: persons, development, neurosis, change, process in healing relationships; and personal reflections on the healing community. Early concepts of trust versus mistrust are connected to the infant's needs being met regularly, lovingly, and satisfactorily by the primary person in the infant's life. Belief systems are healthy or unhealthy in proportion to the repetitive healthy or unhealthy situations that are encountered during one's development. Belief systems are not synonymous with ego development, but the two occur simultaneously. Understanding the concept of belief systems enabled the author to understand the clients who entered therapy with him. This understanding affects the way he listens, perceives and filters information, and conducts himself in therapy sessions. The term 'healing relationship' refers to the one-on-one relationship between therapist and client. His personal reflection on the healing community reviews the journey from ordination to psychotherapy, and describes the integration of two vocations into one--pastoral psychotherapist.
