“Working with Muslim Couples”

Presenter: Musarat Yusufali, LCSW

Musarat is a psychotherapist in private practice since 2014. She specializes in treating minority women in healing trauma and couples of color that want to heal their relationship. Musarat's training comes from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR and Gottman Level 1 and Level 2. She also brings in approaches from interpersonal neurobiology and mindfulness systems into therapy.

Presentation Objectives:

1. What are some differences to consider when working with Muslims.
2. How religion/culture may play into a relationship dynamic.
3. How to make a Muslim couple feel safe even if you don’t identify in their faith.

Presentation Description:

In this presentation, you will learn a little about Islamic beliefs and some cultural nuances. You will also learn ways of engaging a Muslim couple in therapy and what to take into consideration when working with a Muslim couple. By the end of my talk you should feel more confident and culturally competent when the person calling you happens to be a person with a background in the Islamic faith.
