Posttraumatic growth and spiritual change in women’s substance use recovery
Guided by posttraumatic growth (PTG) frameworks, this study examines spiritual change as a dimension of women’s substance use recovery in the context of interpersonal violence. Among women in residential substance use treatment with self-reported histories of interpersonal trauma (N = 51), spiritual growth was found to be positively associated with PTG and inversely related to spiritual decline. Spiritual struggle was linked to psychological dist…
The use of spiritually integrated psychotherapies in mental health treatment centers
Practice-based evidence research was used to document the use of spiritual interventions in three mental health treatment settings among eight therapists and 128 clients. Materials included measures of client distress, along with measures of counselor’s therapeutic process use and orientations toward the delivery of spiritual interventions. Analyses revealed the most common theoretical approaches and spiritual interventions in our settings. Diffe…
Outcomes of a practice-based evidence study of spiritually integrated psychotherapy in a mental health setting
A practice-based evidence approach was used to evaluate client outcomes within a Catholic-affiliated mental health treatment setting. Measures included the Clinically Adaptive Client Outcome Measure, the Clinically Adaptive Therapist Session Checklist, and a therapist questionnaire, including the Religious/Process Assessment Scale. One-way analyses of variance (ANOVAs) with repeated measures were used to assess change in client outcomes over thre…
Forgiveness as a component of spiritual change after the murder of a loved one
Homicide survivors experience a synergistic mixture of trauma, grief, and injustice. Literature indicates the positive role of forgiveness in healing, nuances to the definitions of forgiveness, and the potential for positive spiritual growth following homicide loss. This secondary, thematic analysis of 16 interviews examines forgiveness as part of the process of spiritual change following the homicide of a loved one. Analysis indicated the potent…
Use of Spirituality to Make Sense of Loss by Homicide
This article presents a magnification of Stage 2 of the Theory of Post-Homicide Spiritual Change, a three-stage grounded theory of spiritual change after homicide (Theory of PHSC). Having endured the disintegration of their belief systems in the immediate aftermath of murder (Stage 1), survivors turn in Stage 2 to a more extended process of grappling with a crisis of meaning. This Stage 2 process is presented within the framework of the meaning m…
A thematic analysis of in-hospital end-of-life care experiences of surviving family members
While end-of-life care (EoLC) priorities for patients dying in the hospital are well-documented, few data characterize needs and experiences of their family members. We conducted thematic analysis of audio recorded interviews of 18 bereaved family members to elucidate these experiences. Participants' memories were organized into two parent themes: those related to satisfaction with the care received and effective communication; those identifying …
A Hermeneutic Phenomenological Study of the Lived Experience of Spiritual Conversion in a Neo-Charismatic Evangelical Context
A Grounded Theory of the Process of Spiritual Change Among Homicide Survivors
Grounded theory was used to generate a mid-range theory of the process of spiritual change in the lives of survivors of homicide victims. Theoretical sampling guided the selection of 30 participants from a larger study of spiritual change after homicide ( N = 112). Individual interviews were analyzed using a four-step sequence of line-by-line, focused, axial, and selective coding. Analysis generated a closed theory consisting of three fluids, con…
Finding strength, comfort, and purpose in spirituality after homicide
A Comparison of Profiles of Transtheoretical Model Constructs of Change among Depressed and Nondepressed Women at Risk for an Alcohol-Exposed Pregnancy
The Relationship Between Suicide Ideation, Behavioral Health, and College Academic Performance
Choices
Examples of behavioral interventions that are efficacious in the research setting as well as practical and translatable to the “real-world” are critically needed as models for social work researchers and clinicians. This article presents the Changing High-Risk Alcohol Use and Improving Contraception Effectiveness Study (CHOICES) intervention as a case example of an empirically supported intervention that was systematically developed, implemented,…
