The growing use of meditation in psychotherapy will be the topic of a continuing education course for mental health professionals at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary in East Liberty Sunday.

"What does it mean for psychotherapy, which has been vigilant in keeping religion out, to now be active in inviting a religious practice in?" said Jon Spiegel, a psychologist who organized the half-day forum that is to begin at 12:30 p.m.

Rabbi Abraham Twerski, a psychiatrist and Orthodox Jewish scholar, will give the keynote address. Registration is $65.
