| Summary: | HIV / AIDS patients need biopsychosociospiritual therapy, it means that patients are not only seen in terms of organobiological, psychological, social but also spiritual aspects. Spiritual therapy is needed for patients in dealing with the complexity of the problems caused by HIV / AIDS, therefore VCT counselor (Voluntary Counseling Test) in the PLWHA referral hospital (People Living with HIV / AIDS) must meet the spiritual aspects of HIV / AIDS patients (clients). This research was a qualitative research with a psychological approach to describe the spiritual dimension in the practice of counseling for HIV / AIDS patients in the VCT clinic of PLWHA referral hospitals in Semarang (RSI Sultan Agung and Panti Wilasa Citarum Hospital). The two "religious" hospitals are unique because VCT counselors come from patients' spiritual guides. The results showed that the spiritual dimension in counseling practice for HIV/AIDS patients could be achieved by implementing religious counseling objectives. The Counselor VCT Panti Wilasa hospital applies Pastoral counseling objectives such as sustaining, improving the relationship or reconciling, repentance, and growth of faith. Meanwhile, VCT RSI Counsellor applies Islamic counseling objectives such as understanding of Allah SWT, improving faith and worship, and improving morality. |
