| 总结: | The authors seek a renewed understanding of the therapeutic process through the integration of process theology, pneumatology, and systems psychology. A systemic approach not only integrates intrapersonal, interpersonal and contextual variables, but also integrates psychological data with theological propositions from the Christian tradition in order to give multi-layered meaning to the relationship between client and clinician. Process theology, with its articulation of God's perpetual invitation to step from the past into the future, and the pneumatology of Jürgen Moltmann-emphasizing the companionate, indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit-will provide a theological basis for viewing the work of the Spirit in the therapeutic process. The authors propose three systemic levels of the Spirit-in-process' involvement in psychotherapy. The Spirit invites a kenotic meeting of client and clinician to form the working alliance, foments an emotionally rich environment in which corrective emotional experiences occur, and serves as midwife to the genesis of new synapses and neurons in the brain. |
