DISCLAIMER: Our Pastoral Guidance is Distinct from Clinical Mental Health Therapy
It is important to understand that the spiritual guidance and support offered at Qalam are distinct from licensed clinical mental health therapy. Our services focus on spiritual enrichment and faith-based motivation for young adults and adults, navigating life's challenges through an Islamic lens, and fostering spiritual well-being.
While our team members possess valuable experience and understanding, including backgrounds in mental health studies, our pastoral counseling does not constitute mental health treatment, diagnosis, or therapy as provided by licensed mental health professionals.
