Rebecca took an incredibly broad and complex topic and condensed it into something very digestible, approachable, and genuinely useful for clinicians, clients, and the general public.

It is such an accessible and thoughtfully organized resource for anyone – whether you already have a spiritual worldview or are simply spiritually curious.

If a therapist or client is wishing to connect with the spiritual, in whatever way might work for them, this guide will allow them to gain a broad understanding and pick and choose what feels important to them.

There is no doubt many of our clients' pain comes from some kind of unexpressed spiritual vacuum ‘I'm anxious but I don't know why...' and a combination of therapy and spiritual guidance such as this tool can help.

As a clinical psychologist, I appreciated Becoming Whole for its integrative and compassionate approach to mental health.

This resource skillfully bridges ancient spiritual traditions with contemporary psychological insights, offering readers a multidimensional framework for healing that goes beyond symptom reduction.

I especially valued the emphasis on self-realization, mindfulness, and alignment with higher values, which are concepts that are aligned with humanistic and transpersonal psychology. Overall, this resource offers a rich, thoughtful contribution to the evolving conversation around holistic mental health.

At first, I feared that the book would be too philosophical, or I might experience information overload. However, upon going through the content, I felt more at ease. It felt enlightening to have a deeper understanding of the concepts we usually hear when studying mindfulness, spirituality, and religion.

My biggest takeaways were probably the concepts of wu wei, wholesome and unwholesome desire, and the existence of a higher power that we can hold on to.

Everyone may have a different take on spirituality but knowing that we are governed by something greater and bigger than us can propel us to view life differently.
