Abstract

The purposes of this article are to introduce the reader to Reformed theology and to begin to discuss implications of Reformed spirituality on the practice of Christian psychology. A discussion of a case example will be utilized to consolidate the reader's understanding of the Reformed theological tradition and its application to Christian spiritual formation in a clinical setting. This article implies that the impact of Reformed theology and spirituality on clinical practice is profound enough to warrant further investigations of theologically congruent psychotherapies.
