He is co facilitator of the DWP religion and spirituality group and also co-founder of the ‘Communities of Practice’ initiative at the Institute of Family therapy where he conducted his MSc research on the systemic training of Muslim community leaders in London published in the JFT and Context. He is currently a doctoral student at the University of Bedfordshire where he is contrasting the Islamic intellectual and mystical tradition with systemic theory and practice.
Systemic & Family therapy is useful for individuals, couples, youth, children and families from all walks of life who are facing a variety of difficulties and experiences, such as:
Families facing challenges such as mental illness, physical illness, bereavement, ageing, family conflicts, cultural adjustments, trauma, etc.
Families worried about their children’s behaviour.
Families and couples who want to build closer and happier relationships.
Parents who wish to divorce or separate in a way that focuses on their children’s happiness and needs.
Any family who would like someone to help them talk openly and about difficult things in a safe and useful way.
In addition to addressing a range of problems and health conditions, family therapy is sensitive to diverse family forms, respecting the importance of each person’s beliefs, culture, and life experiences.
It is also considerate of each individual’s needs and problems within a family unit and considers all other vital relationships in people’s lives, making it a useful approach for people of all ages and backgrounds.
I have experience in dealing with Gender Dysphoria.
