AbstractOur mental health determines the majority of our physical and cognitive issues. When our mental health is strong, we can heal both our body and mind. However, people today have lost their inner capacity to handle everyday issues and have drifted far from their culture, values, and beliefs. Making connections with the self and the universe is facilitated by spirituality, and this affects the emotional, physical, and cognitive domains. Social workers serve as trailblazers in medical, educational, and other welfare settings by offering psychological support to patients so they can grow in their ability to overcome their issues.
Objective: The primary objective of social work practice is to help clients develop the capacity to solve their problems, and this could be achieved through the use of spirituality as a coping and healing tool without imposing any particular religion.
Research Methodology: This study is descriptive, based on secondary sources, and discusses the value of spirituality in mental health services as well as its inclusion in the social work profession.
Findings: Implicit assessment of belief systems is essential in social work practice, particularly in the areas of depression, low self-esteem, suicidal thoughts, and palliative care. Social work practitioners, through spirituality, develop self-confidence, the potential to concentrate the mind, meaning and hope in life, and a theoretical framework is employed to better understand social work practice with spirituality in mental health.
