This month, Sivan spoke to Sheikh Saeed Nasser about his work as an integrative counsellor, bereavement counsellor, interpreter and clinical supervisor. He shared his experience of working within the Muslim community in this capacity and shed light on several aspects of life from relationships to mental health. Sheikh Saeed also spoke openly about his earlier years, his way of facing the stigma he experienced with regards to his visual impairment and his love for his home, the UK. With his gentle nature and wise words, Sheikh Saeed really gave us a lot to ponder upon.
Some of the things you’ll find out about are:
Where did his passion for mental health com from?What were his younger years like and what kind of stigma did he face?How did Sheikh Saeed handle stigma towards him?What teachings can we take from the Qur'an to help us deal with everyday stressors and greater difficulties?How can we think about life and the hereafter and remind ourselves of the temporary nature of this world?How can we form resilient families and communities?How can we be more open in our relationships and really allow each other to express ourselves without fear of judgement?
