Zen and clinical social work: A spiritual approach to practice
This exploratory study examined the influence of a personal practice of Zen Buddhist meditation on the professional work of clinical social workers. Three areas were explored with a sample of 10 clinical social workers who had practiced Zen meditation for at least 5 years: practice framework, clinical practice, and interactions within larger systems.

Implications of these findings for the practice of clinical social work are offered
