Caring for Our MUHSEN Community Through Counselling Support

Access Islamically-aligned mental health care through Ruh, MUHSEN’s trusted counselling partner.

Why MUHSEN is Sharing This Resource

Counselling Services by

We know that families in the MUHSEN community face unique emotional, spiritual, and caregiving challenges, and that finding support that is both professionally grounded and aligned with Islamic values can feel out of reach.

That's why we've partnered with Ruh and Humaniti Foundation to bring Islamically aligned, culturally responsive counselling to Muslim families across Canada. Through this partnership, eligible members can connect with Ruh's licensed Muslim mental health professionals, many of whom have extensive experience supporting children, adults, caregivers, and families living with disabilities.

Accessing care is made as simple as possible, whether through existing insurance benefits, out-of-pocket payment, or financial assistance. Most importantly, you'll receive support in a space that honours your faith, your culture, and your lived experience.

What kind of support is available?

The Ruh team of Muslim therapists understand the unique nuances of our faith and cultural practices.

Islamically aligned: Therapists who understand Islamic teachings and integrate them into therapy as needed

Flexible and confidential access: Connect via audio or video on your mobile or desktop

Care for everyone: Individuals, couples, children, and families

Multilingual support: Services offered in 17+ languages including English, Arabic, French, Hindi, Urdu, Pashto, Punjabi, Farsi, German, Bengali, Malayalam, Tamil, Rohingya, Harari, Creole, Sindhi, and American Sign Language (ASL)

Comprehensive care: Support for anxiety, stress, burnout, parenting and family challenges, marriage and relationship concerns, grief, trauma, life transitions, child and youth mental health, caregiver stress, faith, identity, emotional wellbeing, and more

Disability-informed care: Therapists with experience supporting individuals with disabilities, as well as parents, caregivers, and families navigating disability-related needs
