معظم من يأتونني بسبب الوسواس القهري يحملون قناعة واحدة قبل أن يجلسوا: أن ما يحدث لهم دليل على ضعف فيهم أو في إيمانهم. أشرح هنا لماذا لا يقيس هذا الاضطراب أياً منهما، وما الذي يغيّر النمط فعلاً.

عقلك حصان يركض بأقصى سرعته، وأنت السائق الممسك بزمام العربة. فرط التفكير مهارة يمكن تدريبها، لا صفة ثابتة. إليك كيف يبني العلاج النفسي الجسر بين العقل الاندفاعي والعقل الأعمق القادر على التوجيه

معظم من يعانون من الوسواس القهري يصلون إلى قناعة بأن الدواء هو الخيار الوحيد المتبقي، وهذا غالباً غير دقيق. إليك التركيبة العلاجية المدعومة بالأبحاث — العلاج بالتعرض ومنع الاستجابة مع التأمل التجاوزي — من أخصائية نفسية إكلينيكية مرخصة تمارس في دبي.

بقلم سارة النابلسي، ماجستير العلوم، ماجستير الآداب، ماجستير الآداب عند البحث عن "دكتور نفسي في دبي"، من المفيد معرفة أن هناك مسارين مختلفين للرعاية النفسية: الطبيب النفسي (Psychiatrist) والأخصائي النفسي الإكلينيكي (Clinical Psychologist). الطبيب النفسي طبيب حاصل على شهادة طب بشري، ومخوّل لوصف الأدوية النفسية، وقد يقدّم العلاج النفسي أيضاً في بعض الحالات. أما الأخصائي النفسي الإكلينيكي فهو مختص حاصل على تدريب متعمق في العلاج النفسي (العلاج بالكلام)، ولا يصف الأدوية، بل يعمل من

The attraction is real — there's biology behind it. So is what tends to surface after year one. A clinical look at cross-cultural relationships.

When wealth and beauty are the most visible signals in your environment, they quietly become your selection criteria. A clinical psychologist names the pattern.

When you're lonely in a new city, the urgency of connection changes who you choose. The most common — and least discussed — expat relationship pattern.

The freedom to reinvent yourself is one of an expat city's great gifts — and for some, it's specifically about escaping accountability. What the research shows.

No mutual friends. No shared history. How do you know who you're really dating when the normal checks don't exist?

The excitement is real. So are the forces that make expat relationships harder. A clinical look at why it hits different.

We treat sleep like a variable — something to cut when we're busy and recover later. Neuroscience and five-thousand-year-old Ayurvedic wisdom both disagree. Here's why sleep is not passive rest, and how aligning with natural rhythms changes everything.

Working from home during COVID isn't a privilege — it's a challenge. Here's what the neuroscience of stress, circadian rhythms, and co-regulation tells us about staying focused, protecting your relationships, and setting boundaries when home becomes the office.

Dubai psychologist Ms. Sarah El Nabulsi on MBC1 Sabah Al Khair Ya Crisis shakes our foundational beliefs — and that, paradoxically, is where growth begins. Here's what trauma psychology tells us about resilience, meaning-making, and why helping others is one of the most powerful things you can do for your own nervous system.

When shelves empty overnight and people stockpile things they don't need, it looks irrational. But the psychology tells a different story. Here's what's really driving crisis behavior — and what it reveals about our collective mental health.

We assume wealthy people are happy. Research — and clinical experience — suggests otherwise. Lasting happiness isn't about mood management. It's about the depth at which you engage your own consciousness. Here's what the neuroscience actually says.

Our culture celebrates the hard worker. But there's a line between ambition and addiction — and in the Arab world, that line is especially easy to miss. Here's what workaholism actually looks like, why it happens, and what to do about it.

The most successful people alive don't just work harder. They function from a fundamentally different neurological state. Here's what Transcendental Meditation actually does to your brain — and why the world's top performers swear by it.

One of the most common beliefs I encounter in my clinical work is that children are too young to have real emotions — that feelings are an adult matter. I want to respectfully challenge that entirely. The whole of a child's adult life rests on what happens in early childhood.

In many Arab homes, authority means fear. The father is respected because he is feared. Rules are followed because of what happens if they aren't. I understand this system.
