Dr Ghinwa Haj Diab

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

Verified

I'm a clinical psychologist providing individual therapy for adolescents and adults through a client-centered, ethical, and tailored approach. I integrate CBT and Systematic and Analytic Psychotherapy to explore emotional roots of distress and support long-term coping and growth.

About Me

I provide individual therapy for adolescents and adults, offering a client-centred, ethical space tailored to your unique needs. We'll thoughtfully explore the emotional roots of your distress. Integrating approaches like CBT and Analytic Psychotherapy, I help you understand underlying patterns. This supports long-term coping and personal growth. My aim is to foster lasting change and deeper self-awareness.

Approach

Therapy unfolds as a collaborative exploration where we map patterns, try gentle experiments, and strengthen the skills that relieve suffering and increase choice. In Beirut or online, in Arabic, sessions move at a thoughtful, paced tempo—focused yet flexible—so you feel heard and guided toward clarity. I mix structured skill practice with reflective work and occasional creative tasks, and we set small between‑session steps to consolidate progress. This way of working tends to help adolescents and adults seeking steady, lasting change.
