A word from our audience
“I listened to 45 minutes of your radio program this evening while driving and I want to congratulate you on this excellent community help. The program provides a unique opportunity of bringing out topics that very often are never brought out in a media forum; and it also provides the medium for the community to get a professional and realistic feedback on these topics. I genuinely enjoyed the program and do think it is a great service to the community. Good luck and best wishes … 2008” Samir Haddad Former CEO, Gillette Middle East

Psychologists united By Sonali Raha Published: 04/01/2003(UAE) The newly-established Emirates Psychological Society aims to be the umbrella organization for mental health care professionals in the Emirates.

Today, education and awareness have removed that stigma and given psychologists their rightful role - that of friends and advisors. Going to a psychologist for advice on physical health. More and more people in the Middle East are seeking psychological help today, according to psychologists in Dubai. As the profession grows in influence and attracts more practitioners, it needs an umbrella body that can help it fulfill its functions effectively.		In an interview with Tabloid: Dr Raymond H.
