Abstract
This paper provides an introduction for readers on defining faith and reflects on how understanding the importance of this to the people we work with could be approached within forensic settings. Consideration is given as to how adopting a lens of faith-based inquiry could be used in formulation and therapy. The paper concludes by providing recommendations for how practitioners could begin to have a conversation about faith using a Faith Based Audit tool.
