G. Hussein Rassool: Ethical Dilemmas in Isl¿mic Psychotherapy, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book is a guide to help psychotherapists, counsellors, and other mental health practitioners navigate the ethical dilemmas and challenges inherent to Islmic psychotherapy. In recent decades, the therapeutic application of Islmic psychotherapy has gained remarkable momentum. This approach integrates religion and spirituality into mental health practices, offering profound insights and benefits for clients. However, the incorporation of spirituality and religion into psychotherapy also raises a range of ethical dilemmas and challenges that remain insufficiently addressed in the literature. This book seeks to address this critical gap by providing a comprehensive resource that offers both theoretical foundations and practical strategies for identifying, understanding, and resolving ethical dilemmas when working with Muslim clients.

Grounded in the ethical principles of Islm, it draws upon Qur'nic teachings, hadth, and Islmic jurisprudence while incorporating insights from contemporary ethical practices in psychology and psychotherapy. Additionally, the book emphasizes the importance of cultural competence, presenting case studies, practical examples, and best practices tailored to the unique needs of Muslim clients. Grounded in Islmic principles, this work aspires to bridge the gap between mainstream ethical frameworks and culturally sensitive, Islmically-informed practices in psychotherapy.

Through its comprehensive exploration of these challenges, Ethical Dilemmas in Islmic Psychotherapy: Balancing Faith, Culture, and Professional Ethics not only fills a critical gap in the literature but also contributes to the broader discourse on the integration of religion and spirituality in mental health care. By doing so, it empowers practitioners to deliver ethical, effective, and competent care to Muslim clients, fostering greater trust and healing within the therapeutic relationship.
