PSY-350 - Cross-Cultural Psychology Week 11: Article Review #7 : Religion and spirituality on Black women's mental health Religion and spirituality on Black women's mental health Vieten et al. (2013) study religion and spirituality in people's lives and their diverse links. The authors show how religion, spirituality, and mental health are linked. The study shows that psychotherapy, assessment, and treatment planning ignore religious and spiritual issues. This shortcoming is addressed by recommending 16 fundamental spiritual and theological skills for psychologists. The recommended skills were established in three steps by researchers. A rigorous spirituality/religion and psychology literature review began. Scholar-clinician focus groups were formed to gather opinions. A final online survey of 184 industry experts collected competency language suggestions. 105 trained psychotherapists with spirituality/religion and psychology knowledge rated each competency's clarity and relevance to identify the final 16 competencies. Psychologists need 16 spiritual and religious skills, according to studies. The talents, attitudes, and understanding address spiritual and religious beliefs and practices in treatment. The results highlight the pressing need for incorporating spiritual and religious considerations in the training and practice of psychologists (Vieten et al., 2013) . Spirituality and religion were not used in psychological care despite its wellness advantages. Competences reduce this gap and enhance psychologist training. The research examines spiritual and religious concerns and client therapeutic alternatives. The competencies give a strong foundation for psychology's spiritual and religious topics. The focus on professional psychotherapists may limit generalizability to other psychological areas. Future research should assess these competencies in practice across psychological professions. The research does not address how these competences are implemented or how they affect client outcomes. It also raises questions about spiritual and religious components in psychotherapy, especially when clinicians and clients disagree. Consider longitudinal assessments of spiritual and

religious competencies on client well-being to enhance future research. A more diversified group of psychologists may also assist establish these abilities' fieldwide applicability. Exploring the challenges and ethics of addressing spiritual and religious subjects in therapy may help us understand this connection. References
