TherapyLine, launched in 3 new markets, for Muslim mental health services
KUALA LUMPUR, July 29 (Bernama) -- TherapyLine, the online mobile mental health company for Muslims has been launched in three new markets, namely the United Kingdom (UK), Australia and New Zealand, to provide professional counselling to Muslims worldwide.
Originally launched in Canada, TherapyLine provides unlimited counselling from professionally licensed Muslim counsellors via direct messaging through the Therapyline.org website for about US$179 per month. (US$1 = RM4.13)
“Currently, about 2.3 million Muslims live in the United Kingdom, over 600,000 live in Australia and about 50,000 live in New Zealand, so that is about three million more Muslims we can now reach (out to) that might not have tried to seek mental health before,” said TherapyLine founder and chief executive officer, Faisal Khan.
TherapyLine is looking at the UK as an entry to provide Therapy to Muslims in Europe, as well as part of its longer term plan to go worldwide, according to a statement.
As the topic of mental health is not discussed among Muslims or publicly at Islamic institutions, TherapyLine aims to change and normalise this, in addition to obtaining access to professional mental health services in the Muslim world.
