What is the Bringing My Faith and Values Into Daily Life?

Integrating spiritual values into daily life connects religious or spiritual identity with values-based action, supporting meaning and wellbeing.

Why it works

Spiritually integrated psychotherapy draws on clients’ sacred values (Pargament, 2007). Values-based action is a core ACT process (Hayes et al., 2012).

When to use it

  • Clients with strong faith identity
  • Values clarification
  • Moral decisions
  • Faith-based counselling

How to use it in session

  1. Identify values.
  2. Note current expression.
  3. Find growth areas.
  4. Choose a guided action.
  5. Reflect.

Clinician tips

  • Let clients define values in their own terms.
  • Avoid judging traditions.
  • Link to general values work.

Worked example

Value: compassion. Live it: volunteering. More: with myself. This week: speak kindly to myself after mistakes.

Sharing with clients

Members can download the PDF to print or email, or copy a private client link from the download box. Your client opens the link and downloads the worksheet on any device. No client account is needed, and nothing your client writes is stored on TherapyAid.

Frequently asked questions

Is this only for religious people?

No. It works with any deeply held spiritual or personal values.

What if my faith and values conflict?

That can be explored with your therapist and, if you wish, a faith leader.
