Reviews

“This volume will be welcomed and is valuable for Muslims and Muslim clinicians along with general mental health professionals who are interested in spiritually integrated psychotherapy as it applies to the Islamic tradition.” —Samuel Bendeck Sotillos, Journal of Spiritual Psychology and Counseling “Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy seeks to bridge the gap between Islamic spirituality and psychotherapy by pulling together the work of nine practicing Muslim clinicians who are synthesizing Islam with Western therapeutic approaches. . . . [T]he Islamic tradition urges people to seek healing, and this book gives us vivid descriptions of therapeutic techniques based on Islamic principles. Some outcomes are more favorable than others, but in the cases recorded in this book, the introduction of Islamic spirituality helped clients engage more fully in therapeutic processes. This makes Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy a resource for any reader who wants to explore how Islam and psychotherapy are enriching each other in clinical settings.” —Robert Carle, Journal of Religion and Health (Online, 10/23/18) “Al-Karam has assembled a diverse and talented team to demonstrate how psychology (and psychotherapy in particular) can be approached from a Muslim worldview. This remarkable and nuanced work will serve the field by spurring discussion, promoting understanding, and hopefully igniting research in the area. I heartily encourage it as a starting point for all who want to understand and work effectively with Muslims in therapy.” —Tim Sisemore, PhD, president of APA’s Society for the Psychology of Religion and Spirituality (Div. 36) and author of The Psychology of Religion and Spirituality: From the Inside Out (Wiley) “This edited volume makes a profound contribution to the existing literature on psychotherapy broadly, and amplifies the voices of Muslim practitioners. Among the most salient features are the diverse treatment modalities featured, the weaving of conceptual and practical content, and the range of audiences that can benefit from the book!” —Altaf Husain, MSSA, PhD, associate professor, Howard University School of Social Work and vice president, Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research “The book is a testimony to the profound multifaceted contributions of a new generation of Muslim psychologists. Just by reading the titles of the chapters and the names of the authors, any psychologist practicing in the Muslim world would find it necessary to have it as a reference for helping him or her with the unique problems of Muslim clients.” —Malik Badri, professor of Psychology, Istanbul Zaim University “This is a timely book to guide practitioners worldwide in developing and using Islamic paradigms and principles in their work. The need to share their insights is paramount in taking this field further to the Muslim community and to the mainstream globally.” —Nasima Khanom, Consultant Specialist Systemic/Family Psychotherapist and founding chair of the Islamic Psychology Professional Association (IPPA) “A timely, bold and much-needed work offering insights into working with Muslim clients all over the world.” —Amber Haque, PhD, professor of Clinical Psychology, United Arab Emirates University “This book is a landmark in the epiphany of Islamic Psychology in the West: a ‘must read’ for all those with an interest in the field.” —Rasjid Skinner, consultant clinical psychologist and visiting professor of Clinical Psychology at the University of Karachi “Carrie York Al-Karam has edited a must-read primer for any counselor or therapist working with Muslim patients and couples. After reading this book, you will have learned from some of the best researchers in the field.” —Rukhsana M. Chaudhry PsyD, director of Mental Health Programming, American Muslim Health Professionals “This is a remarkable and skillfully written book. All the chapters give us the opportunity to explore and better understand psychology through the Islamic lens. I applaud this initiative, and highly recommend this book to be a source of reference for all in the field of psychology.” —Joanne Hands, PhD, LPC, LMFT, president, Middle East Psychological Association  “How truly fortunate we are to have this fascinating overview and useful introduction to the important field of global Islamic psychotherapy.” —Virginia Gray Henry, director of Fons Vitae and codirector of the Ghazali Children’s Project “This book is a most welcome and vital addition to the re-emerging and rapidly growing field of Islamic Psychology and Psychotherapy. It is an essential read for all Muslim counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists and psychiatrists from all modalities, and contains valuable insights for any clinician working with Muslim clients.” —Myira Khan, founder of the Muslim Counsellor and Psychotherapist Network (MCAPN), BACP accredited counsellor and supervisor, BACP Board of Governors Trustee “This book is a must read for all Muslim clinicians as well as everyday Muslims and anyone interested in spiritually integrated psychotherapy.” —Wisconsin Muslim Journal
