The study examines the relationship between clients' spiritual well-being and their
satisfaction with life and with the counselling service. A probability sample of
participants (N = 58) undergoing treatment was used in this survey design correlational
study. Three questionnaires (Spiritual Well-Being Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale
and Client Satisfaction Questionnaire) were employed. A significant relationship was
found between clients' spiritual well-being and life satisfaction (Pearson's r = 0.54, p <
0.001; 2-tailed). A non-significant relationship was established between clients'
spiritual well-being and service satisfaction (Spearman's rho = 0.21, p> 0.05; 2-tailed)
and between clients' life satisfaction and service satisfaction (Spearman's rho = 0.19, p
> 0.05; 2-tailed). The study concludes that spirituality is an important dimension in
well-being but it does not correlate with satisfaction with services.
