Art, Objects, and Beautiful Stories: A "New" Approach to Spiritual Care.

The use of story, and the use of art or various arts-based techniques have become popular in a number of helping professions, including spiritual care.

This paper addresses this gap by discussing the experience, theory, benefits, and technique of combining story and art or object-based techniques for the provision of spiritual care.
