A Person-Centered Approach to Psychospiritual Maturation  [electronic resource] : Mentoring Psychological Resilience and Inclusive Community in Higher Education /
Kass, Jared D.author.
This book presents an engaged learning curriculum for higher education that helps emerging adults and professionals-in-training develop psychological resilience and community-building interpersonal skills. The curriculum mentors a person-centered process of psychospiritual maturation through growth in five dimensions of self: bio-behavioral, cognitive-sociocultural, social-emotional, existential-spiritual, and resilient worldview formation. This growth promotes student well-being and a positive campus culture, while preparing them to build cultures of health, social justice, and peace in the social systems where they will work and live.
Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.
