Mysteries of Mental Illness

Dr. Hooman Keshavarzi | Decolonizing Mental Health

Instead, they seek help from family members, clergymen - people who don’t have the formal training to provide them with adequate care. Dr Hooman Keshavarzi’s Khalil Center provides that much-needed oasis that is a confluence of psychiatry and the Islamic faith.
