Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy and Domestic Abuse

Author(s) : Khalida Haque

Reviews and Endorsements

For decades, many have invested in developing a faith and culturally sensitive approach to addressing challenges within Muslim communities. Today, we see the flourishing of integrated healing and counselling models that combine the best of Islāmic traditions and secular insights.
Khalida Haque, a seasoned psychotherapist and practitioner of Islāmic Counselling, is well placed to offer a thoughtful and solution focused methodology on the sensitive issue of domestic violence. Her work provides valuable insights, deeper understanding, and viable recommendations for much needed investment.
Congratulations, Khalida, on your dedication and hard work in bringing this important book together.
Humera Khan, Co-Founder An-Nisa Society & EDI Consultant

Domestic violence and abuse (DVA), along with various forms of interpersonal trauma, is a significant public health crisis that transcends borders and cultures. In the UK's multicultural landscape, there is a gap in understanding and competence regarding effective and culturally informed support for individuals from diverse, intersectional backgrounds.
This book is a vital resource for professionals in social work, education, psychotherapy, and other statutory and voluntary sector contexts, particularly those addressing domestic violence and abuse. Khalida skilfully combines scholarly insights with accessibility, creating a well-researched work that clarifies the complexities of delivering effective, faith-sensitive services that truly meet community needs.
Dr. Hana Villar, Clinical Director Mind CHWF

This is an important and timely book which I strongly recommend to anyone working in social work, education, psychotherapy and in other public facing services, both statutory and third sector, particularly where there are intersections with domestic violence and abuse. Khalida wears her scholarship lightly, but has produced a well-researched and wide-ranging book that addresses and indeed defines the challenges involved in delivering faith-sensitive services that are both effective and meet the needs of the communities they serve.

In this book Khalida Haque brings her diverse and extensive experience with working with marginalised communities to contribute an important focus on the positive role of faith in supporting survivors and perpetrators of domestic abuse. She brings compassion and expertise to help people find a path forward.
This is a vital and timely resource.
