Cognitive Analytica’s psychotherapists hold degrees in psychology from leading Lebanese institutions including Université Saint-Joseph (USJ), Holy Spirit University of Kaslik (USEK), the Lebanese University and many more. In addition to their academic education, our therapists have received advanced clinical training from the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a world-renowned center for evidence-based psychotherapy. Every therapist at Cognitive Analytica is licensed, ethically grounded, and committed to providing multilingual care (Arabic, English & French) that meets international standards while remaining culturally sensitive to Lebanon’s unique context.
Led by Beck-trained therapist Charbel Haddad, Cognitive Analytica’s team of psychotherapists combines advanced clinical training with deep empathy. Each therapist integrates evidence-based methods such as CBT to create personalized treatment plans. Sessions are confidential, supportive, and multilingual, empowering clients across Lebanon to heal, grow, and thrive.
A psychotherapist helps individuals address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and relationship difficulties through evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Beyond symptom relief, psychotherapy in Lebanon also focuses on personal growth, resilience, and long-term coping strategies. Sessions are confidential, professional, and tailored to the client’s needs.
You should consider therapy when emotional challenges start affecting your daily life, relationships, or work. Common reasons include persistent sadness, anxiety, burnout, grief, or unresolved trauma. Therapy is also valuable for self-development, building healthier relationships, and improving overall mental health. If you’re unsure, even a single consultation with a psychotherapist can clarify whether ongoing sessions may help.
Although the terms are often used interchangeably, there are differences:
Psychologist: Holds advanced degrees in psychology and may specialize in clinical assessment and diagnosis. Find a licensed psychologist in Lebanon.
Psychotherapist: Focuses on delivering therapy, often with training in specific modalities such as CBT, DBT, or psychoanalysis.
In Lebanon, many psychologists are also trained as psychotherapists, creating overlap. The main distinction is that psychotherapists emphasize therapy techniques, while psychologists may combine therapy with research and assessments
Sessions usually last 40–60 minutes and may occur weekly or biweekly, depending on the case. All discussions are confidential, in line with Lebanese law and international ethics. The process begins with an intake session to set goals and clarify expectations. Over time, therapy helps clients build healthier coping mechanisms and achieve lasting change. For those interested in flexible support, bilingual care is available in both Arabic and English. Learn more about counseling options.
