Our Therapy Services

Our Therapy Services We offer a range of therapy services designed to help you manage anxiety, stress, and a variety of mental health concerns. Our services include:

Anxiety & Stress Support:

Guided by the teachings of the Qur’an and Hadith—“O Allah, I seek refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow” (Bukhari, 2893)—we help you manage stress and anxiety from daily pressures, family expectations and faith-related challenges. Our approach integrates practical techniques with spiritual guidance to bring peace and calm to your mind.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy:

Allah says in the Qur'an: “And We have certainly honoured the children of Adam.” (Qur'an, 17:70) Honouring your spiritual and cultural identity, our therapy blends Islamic teachings with evidence-based methods, providing culturally relevant strategies to cope with life’s challenges while respecting your faith.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT):

CBT helps you understand and transform unhelpful thought patterns. Inspired by Qur’anic wisdom—“Indeed, with hardship comes ease” (94:6)—this approach empowers resilience, hope and practical coping skills aligned with faith.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP):

NLP techniques reframe thoughts and behaviours to support personal growth and emotional balance. Incorporating principles such as Ihsan (excellence) and tawakkul (reliance on Allah), NLP can foster positive change while honouring Islamic values.

Hypnotherapy: Allah says in the Qur'an:

Hypnotherapy promotes relaxation, mental clarity, and self-awareness. Guided by the Qur’anic principle, “Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves” (13:11), this therapy supports emotional healing through inner strength and faith.

Each therapy plan is personalised to your needs, ensuring support every step of the way.
