The course mainly examines the complex bonds between, on the one hand, several aspects and dimensions of religion and spirituality and, on the other hand, various components of wellbeing, health (mental and physical) or of psychopathology. The individual and social regulators of these bonds will also be examined. Moreover, the course will broach questions on the place and role of religion and spirituality (on the side of the therapist and of the patient) in the psychotherapeutic practices.
