A fascinating book that explores the spiritual lives of the mentally ill

Drawing on 20 years of leading groups of clients, training clinicians, speaking, and consulting, Nancy Kehoe provides a compelling account of her research and personal experiences in learning about the role of religious and spiritual beliefs in the lives of the mentally ill. Through the moving stories of her own and her clients' lives, she offers hard-won insights and deep spiritual wisdom that will interest both general and professional readers. With her combined background as a psychologist, professor, and a nun, Kehoe is uniquely suited to shed light on a long-neglected but significant aspect of treatment for the mentally ill.

Nancy Kehoe (Boston, MA) is a nun in the Sacred Heart Order and a distinguished clinician well known for her pioneering work with the mentally ill.
