Counselling / Intervention

 

We provide a non-clinical aspect of counselling to our clients who are in need. Herein we deliver psychosocial therapy without any medical intervention. Our techniques and strategies are systems-based which emphasizes on cognitive-behavioural and relationship-based intervention approaches. The intention is to empower the clients and alleviate their concerns; thereby bringing out their self confidence and esteem, while maintaining confidentiality. Yet again this area possesses a wide range of issues that need to be addressed such as the following:

Pre-marital Counselling

Marriage is a sacred bonding between two individuals. It is essential to understand this partnership between couples that will drive towards a healthy relationship. Counsellors at MFS are driven to educate the couples with various intervention strategies spiritually, socially and emotionally. Therefore we encourage all individuals who are soon to be getting married to seek pre-marital counselling.
“O mankind be conscious of your duty to your Lord, Who created you from a single soul, created of like nature, his mate, and from the two, created and spread many men and women”. (Al-Quran 4:1)

Marriage Counselling

A sound family life is a base of a Healthy Functional Society. At some point in time, marriages may face issues and concerns, therefore it is important to understand the dynamics that cause problems. As every partner in a business has to give in their share to make the business run successfully; so as in the case of a marriage, it is essential that both, the husband and wife put in their efforts to resolve conflicts. Sometimes conflict resolution can accomplish with the help of a mediator such as professional counsellors and religious scholars. At MFS we respect our clients’ values and beliefs while working individually or jointly with couples; also provide knowledge and education that lead towards a strong marriage.

Comprehensive Family Support

Counselling for family Support can be a very elaborate approach. Intervention skills and strategies can be applied in regards to Parent-Teen, Youth, Single parent and gerontological issues-such as dealing with the elderly. Our therapeutic aspect is multi-disciplinary; wherein our sessions provide one on one assessment and analysis. We also consider every intergenerational phase of family counselling, jointly.

Anger Management

Anger is a completely normal, human emotion. However, we as counsellors at MFS believe that anger can be suppressed, and then converted or redirected into a constructive behaviour. Our intervention strategies focus on relaxation, cognitive restructuring, better communications techniques and behavioural management. In some cases where applicable we may refer to assertive training programs and psychological counsellors.

Stress/Time Management

Stress is a very common phenomenon developing among families and individuals of all ages. Studies have indicated that stress can be a major cause of depression and burn out. It is essential for every individual to recognize the causative factors or stressors related to stress. Talking about these issues or taking a break from one’s chaotic agenda can be a very effective stimulus. Stress and time are co-related and can be coped with proficient scheduling. Counsellors at MFS focus on the positive and negative aspect of this subject matter while applying proper intervention skills to assist our clients.

Anxiety and depression Counselling

As psychosocial counsellors we identify the symptoms of anxiety and depression in our clients. We deliver non medical therapies and apply effective counselling skills as interventions. Assessment is carried out where necessary and referrals are made accordingly.

Settlement Counselling

We provide wide range of counselling services to our immigrant community in order to make the process of settlement easier. One of the major consequences and challenges our Muslim community face is the risk of culture shock. We at MFS help our clients holistically to overcome these barriers. There are numerous services that we inform clients regarding job search and career advisements. For further details please check the family support services that we provide mainly immigration resettlement and outreach services.
