Our Story
At Ar’Rifqa Counselling, we believe care works best when science and compassion sit at the same table. We combine clinical skills with gentle, human pace so you can safely breathe, sort out what hurts, and move forward with steadiness.
Why we started
After years of exposure to the corporate world, we witnessed the same patterns where people got rewarded for speed and output, while their inner lives were running on empty. Ar’Rifqa was created to normalize getting support and to bring warmth back into how we relate to ourselves, our families, and our communities.
What “Ar’Rifqa” means
Ar’Rifqa echoes two Arabic foundational pillars: rifqa رفقة (companionship) and rifq رِفْق (gentleness). They both capture how we work side-by-side, with compassion. It’s also the heart of our promise: Holding Space with Compassion.
“Whoever is deprived of gentleness is deprived of all good.” - Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Sahih Muslim
قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: “من يحرم الرفق يحرم الخير كله” ((رواه مسلم)).
