Potential starting point if we were to work together
The following topics are directly (or indirectly) related to spirituality. Which topics do you find important, and on what do you wish to focus?
Directions:
For each topic area, please rate your opinion of the topic’s importance & relevance to spirituality:
1 2 3 = Not important/relevant
4 5 6 7 = Moderately important/relevant
8 9 10 = Extremely important/relevant
At the bottom of this questionnaire you can list areas I didn’t mention as this is about your spirituality, which may not align with these topics. Don’t struggle too much with this, it is designed to allow us to explore what matters to you.
After rating each topic’s importance, look over the list again and choose five or so topics you’d most like to focus on in our sessions. Circle that topic’s name and rank your five or so choices in order of importance (1 for the topic you “most wish to explore,” 2 for the topic you “second most wish to explore,” and so on). Again this is only to point us in a direction; we won’t necessarily need to commit to these.
Finally, feel free to use the space below each topic area for notes, comments, questions or anything else you wish to express and/or remember for our conversations.

Thank you for your time and attention to these questions. Your effort will provide you with some starting points for either maintaining, expanding, or if you wish, completely altering your present spirituality.
Finally, what three words would, and wouldn’t, describe your spirituality?
