<![CDATA[Spirituality is conceptualized as the subjective relationship of an individual with God or, more broadly, as a sacred or transcendent relationship. Spirituality is one of the issues proposed in multicultural studies. Spiritual counseling is an approach to counseling that combines spiritual and religious elements to help individuals actualize their potential and face life's challenges. The competence of counselors is essential in conducting spiritual counseling. This research aims to explore the necessary competencies and strategies to enhance them. This research is a type of systematic literature review. The literature search yielded thirteen articles from five databases, with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings in the research indicate a set of competencies required by spiritual counselors, hereafter referred to as ASERVIC competencies. These competencies can serve as a comprehensive foundation for professional spiritual counseling counselors. Various strategies have been offered for counselors to apply to achieve these competency skills. Referring to these findings, counselors are expected to be responsive in promptly achieving competence to conduct professional spiritual counseling practices.]]>
