About this book
Isl?mic Counselling and Psychotherapy: An Introduction to Theory and Practice provides foundation-level knowledge of and perspective on the fundamental principles and practices of counselling and psychotherapy from an Isl?mic perspective.
This groundbreaking practical framework incorporates Isl?mic spirituality, religion, and cultural contexts into the therapeutic process. It makes the case that authentic Isl?mic spirituality, based on submission to God, forms the cornerstone of good mental health. The book's foundation focuses on the therapist's role and ethical considerations specific to Isl?mic psychotherapy. It explores the integration of Qur'ânic teachings and h?d?ths and delves into dream interpretation and the clinical applications of the Siraat Al-Isl?mic psychotherapy practice model. This thoroughly revised new edition also highlights advances and developments in scholarship and evidence-based practices and introduces postmodern psychotherapy approaches like narrative and hope therapy. This text provides a clear understanding of the nature, scope, and process of Isl?mic psychotherapy for Isl?mic practitioners or clinicians working with Muslim clients.
