OVERVIEW. This chapter focuses on the the unique contribution of pastoral care and counseling to processes of healing. The dimension of healing is connected to existential realities that reflect real-life issues. The emphasis is on the healing of life in order to connect to African spiritualities and its interconnectedness to spiritual forces believed to determine the destiny of everyday life. A systems approach, taking into consideration processes of interculturalization, appears best suited to African settings.
