Giles Fraser on the Spiritual Dimension in Psychotherapy

Key analytic figures like Neville Symington and very recently Isca Salzberger WiCenberg in her latest book have written about the importance of the spiritual dimension in their psychotherapeutic work. Giles Fraser often mentions aspects of his personal experience of psychotherapy in his weekly Guardian column ‘Loose Canon’ and he has agreed to discuss his take on the theme of spirituality and psychotherapy.

He is currently the parish priest at St Mary’s, Newington, near the Elephant and Castle, London, and as well as contributing a weekly Saturday column for The Guardian, he frequently appears on BBC Radio 4.
