Abstract EN

Psychotherapy is a concept of a form of psychiatric treatment first introduced under this term in Europe in the 19th century.

It is primarily based on theoretical concepts and techniques derived from the Western cultural model.

Its application in the Arabs al though not formally stated has been always modified by the Arab psychiatrist to fit the cultural model.

These intuitive modification, however, have been made on individual level with no clear, stated or published guideline.

This paper is calling attention to this need, stimulating hopefully a Pan Arab researcg in this area where cultural issues are essential in formulating the proper style of the therapy.

This paper outlines some problems and makes some preliminary proposals.

Abstract FRE

La psychothérapie est une forme de traitement psychiatrique introduit sous ce nom en Europe au 19’Siècle.

Elle est basée principalement sur des conceptions théoriques et sur des techniques dérivées du modèle culturel de l’ouest.

Son application dans le monde Arabe a été modifiée par les psychiatres Arabes pour être en harmonie avec le modèle culturel Arabe, cette modification spontanée a été faite à un niveau personnel sans principes bien définis.

Cet article attire l'attention sur ce besoin, stimulant la recherche à travers le monde Arabe où les issues culturelles sont essentielles pour develloper les moyens de la psychothérapie.

Cet article souligne certains problèmes et met en évidence certaines propositions préliminaires
