This paper explores the therapeutic and pedagogical mechanisms for monitoring the development of religious consciousness among the younger generation within the family context. The research highlights the crucial role of religious and moral values in shaping a child’s worldview, ethical behavior, and identity formation. It examines how family-based religious practices and moral guidance contribute to the emotional, cognitive, and spiritual development of adolescents. The study also discusses the integration of therapeutic and pedagogical strategies that aim to support the healthy formation of belief systems and moral awareness. Special attention is paid to the role of parents, intergenerational transmission of values, and culturally embedded traditions in the upbringing process. The article emphasizes the necessity of a value-oriented educational environment that aligns with the emotional needs and developmental stages of youth. Recommendations are offered for psychologists, educators, and parents on how to effectively monitor and nurture religious consciousness in a balanced, respectful, and psychologically sound manner.
