Abstract

A qualitative study of 30 counsellors or psychotherapists whose work also includes healing was conducted using semi-structured interviews. Seven of the participants then joined the researcher in a human inquiry group. Participants in the research had been practitioners for a mean of over 10 years. The main themes that emerged were the transition by the practitioner towards the use of healing; the taboo concerning talking about spiritual and healing experiences reported by the participants; the nature of healing as distinct from therapy; the supervision difficulties that arose when participants engaged in both counselling/psychotherapy and healing with their clients; and the concept of spiritual space. Some very experienced psychotherapists and counsellors are now including healing in their work. This raises a number of important issues, particularly relating to supervision.
