Islamic
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy involves communication between patients and therapists that is intended to help people:
- Find relief from emotional distress, as in becoming less anxious, fearful or depressed.
- Seek solutions to problems in their lives, such as dealing with disappointment, grief, family issues, and job or career dissatisfaction.
- Modify ways of thinking and acting that are preventing them from working productively and enjoying personal relationships.
Islamic value differences:
- Islamic Psychotherapy emphasises Righteous Benevolence, promoting the principle of mutual responsibility within the society, selflessness, altruism and happiness for others. (Self-Fulfilling Lifestyle versus Righteous Benevolence)
- Islamic Psychotherapy encourages a holistic growth in both the material and spiritual domains. Actualisation is achieved by aligning one's thoughts, emotions and behaviours with Allah's will and seeking His pleasure. (Materialistic versus Holistic Outlook).
- In the Islamic framework, freedom is bound within the limits of the Shari'ah, for both public and private behaviour. The concepts of right and wrong are clearly explicated and actualised through a system of accountability. (Unlimited versus Bounded Freedom).
- In Islam, sinful conduct can never be condoned; instead, the process of repentance is encouraged for correcting and modifying behaviour and assisting in spiritual purification. (Guilt Rationalisation versus Repentance).
It is for this reason that psychotherapy needs to be structured in such a way as to fit the worldview of Muslim patients.
Our Treatment Focus
Using Logotheraputical Techniques from the third Viennese school of psychotherapy (Viktor Frankl), we provide Meaning-Based Therapy through an Islamic lens. CIC Marriage Counselling uses the principles of the Gottman Method, with Islamic teachings, to help couples build a strong and healthy relationship.
Our Client Promise
