RT Article T1 Integrating Cognitive Behavioural and Islamic Principles in Psychology and Psychotherapy: A Narrative Review JF Journal of religion and health VO 61 IS 6 SP 4849 OP 4870 A1 Cucchi, Angie LA English PB Springer Science + Business Media B. V. YR 2022 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1818996782 AB Standardisation of knowledge has become a by-product of globalisation, and western-based models are often seen as the ultimate answer to expertise and development. In light of this, some professionals have debated the feasibility of employing cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with Muslim communities. Debates have focused on CBT’s secular roots and its compatibility with a world where Islam permeates most aspects of life. This article highlights some of the theoretical dilemmas of integration and suggests ways to bridge the existing gap between secular and Islamic literature and avoid alienating those individuals who might feel uncomfortable with secular CBT teachings.
