This speaker will describe literature regarding the adaptive uses of religion and spirituality, such as religious or spiritual coping and making meaning from stressful life events. She will cover the Spiritual Coping module of the Culturally-Informed Therapy for Schizophrenia (CIT-S). In this phase, therapists begin with a detailed spiritual history in order to gauge each family member's beliefs, involvement in spiritual or religious activities and other practices they may have. Therapists assign homework that encourages the family members to explore their religious or spiritual experience in a positive and adaptive light. For clients who do not identify as religious or who are experiencing religious delusions, therapists proceed with this phase of treatment with a more philosophical or existential approach to spirituality and morality. A demonstration of this module will be conducted using volunteers from the audience.This speaker will also describe the final two modules of CIT-S, which are based on the work of Falloon etal. (1984) and Miklowitz and Goldstein (1997). The fourth phase of treatment, Communication Training, attempts to unite concepts and skills learned in the three previous phases through specific attention to communication skills. Family members learn to communicate with and support each other in effective ways. The fifth phase of treatment, Problem-Solving, allows the family to learn and practice problem-solving strategies using relevant examples.

This paper proposes an integration of three therapeutic languages—biofeedback, mindfulness, and multiple-person oriented therapy (family, couple, etc.)—using a novel narrative we call the “Stairway to Togetherness.” Relying on recent theoretical and empirical developments, we present a model that combines these three languages into a single coherent therapeutic approach. This approach points to a new direction for multiperson therapy, emphasizing mindfulness interventions, conflict de-escalation, and psychophysiological mutual-regulation patterns, as opposed to content-based and behavioral interventions that have so far been the norm. We suggest that mindfulness and biofeedback practices and insights can find a proper place in the context of multiperson therapy, by making the intersubjective space between individuals the object of mindful attention. We show how mindfulness principles apply to this relational space, and how biofeedback can support this endeavor. A metaphor of a four-story home is provided to help couples navigate their relationship as they attempt to reach a place of felt togetherness—a therapeutic goal that goes beyond problem solving or communication training. Although this paper focuses on couples therapy, it can easily encompass other forms of multi-person therapy.
