Do Muslims always need Muslim therapists?

(about the type of language on this page: plain language)

The short answer is: No.

The slightly longer answer is:

• It is helpful if psychotherapists understand what being Muslim means.
• It is helpful if those affected understand what psychotherapy means.

So we should establish an exchange.

For some situations, a Muslim therapist is useful and important.

In most cases, a psychotherapist can be chosen regardless of religion.
