Art of Psycho-Oncology

The book focuses on delivering a good/meaningful death and dying process, which becomes the underlying factor in the formation of the current research book.The meaning-making process can be generative for patients' feelings of anxiety, guilt, or hopelessness that seem punishing and unrelenting at the end of life and can be transformed into ways of actively exploring the relationship with self and others. The value of Spiritual psychotherapy in end-of-life care is that it encourages patients to seriously explore their past, present, and future in terms of meaningful choices and the experiences that created and continue to generate their stories. Helping patients explore the "why" of their existence "Why am I here?" and the meaning of their lives "Did my life matter?", Spiritual psychotherapy offers dying patients a way to bear the burden of their suffering and eventual death with strength, and dignity.
