Text in English with summaries in English, Shona and Ndebele / Bibliography: pages 228-252 / The work being reported hereunder focused on spousal conflict as a threat to family cohesion,
while exploring a pastoral approach in the Masvingo Diocese in Zimbabwe. Experience as a
pastor has shown that domestic violence is cancerous in the Masvingo Diocese and this is
proved by alarming statistics about this province. Many marriages have been irrevocably
broken down and the moral fabric that used to characterise family cohesion seems to have
evaporated into thin air. It is on that premise that the objective of the study was to suggest
practical ways that can be employed to facilitate pastoral counselling among families,
encountering spousal issues in the Masvingo Diocese. The research is anchored in Viktor
Frankl’s Logotherapy, complimented by White’s narrative therapy. The research adopts a
mixed method approach which involved closed questionnaires, focus-group discussions and
structured interviews. Some 40 respondents constituted the study sample and they were
purposively sampled. The research sample consisted of four priests in the five deaneries and
36 ordinary members of the Catholic Church. The key results were that Logotherapy and
narrative counselling are effective methods of assisting people to find new meaning in their
lives. Practical ways which pastoral counsellors can adopt go a long way in ameliorating
internal household strife. It must as well be stated that, as a recommendation, pastors have to
take an active role in addressing this malicious domestic violence. Problems of domestic
violence can be solved through pastoral care and counselling. / Iyi itsvagurudzo yezvinokonzerwa nemhirizhonga dzemudzimba pakubatana kwemhuri,
