The thoughts that get in the way
Most people have a reason for putting off getting in touch. Here are some of the common ones. Turn a card over to read a reply.
- Cost
“It feels like a lot to spend on talking.”
- Privacy
“What if someone finds out I’m going to therapy?”
- Time
“When exactly am I supposed to find time for myself?”
- Judgement
“I’ve always been the person everyone else turns to. Who do I turn to?”
- Not yet
“I’ll go if it gets worse.”
- Never tried
“I picture sitting in a room with a stranger, waiting to feel something, and nothing coming.”
- Privacy
“Dubai’s small. Someone always knows someone.”
- What to say
“When I try to put it into words it comes out sounding so small that I can hear myself being ridiculous.”
- Judgement
“They’ll think I’m making a fuss.”
- Coping alone
“Everyone around me has their own things going on. I’d rather not add to the pile.”
- Never tried
“I don’t know what actually happens once you’re in there.”
- Cost
“Every month I tell myself I’ll look into it when things are less tight, and every month something else comes up.”
- What to say
“I wouldn’t know where to start.”
- Time
“By the time the day’s done there’s nothing left in me, and that’s exactly the hour I’d have to use.”
- Coping alone
“I’ve managed this long on my own.”
- Not yet
“Plenty of people are carrying heavier things than this and still getting on with it.”

Check In
Five questions about how things have been. No right answers, and nothing is saved.
Question 1 of 5
How have the last few weeks been?
How's your sleep been lately?
Is there someone you can talk to about it?
How are the everyday things going?
What made you look today?
Nothing's urgent, and that's fine
Sounds like things are broadly steady and you're having a look.
Plenty of people start here. You don't have to be struggling to find it useful to talk something through, and there's no threshold you have to cross first.
Practical questions
The things worth knowing before you book anything, answered as plainly as they can be.
The first call is free, so asking costs nothing. Ask what a session costs before you decide anything. We will also help you with insurance inquiries.
Resonate works on a pay-and-claim basis with clients covered by most major insurers: you pay for the session, then claim it back, and the admin team can help with the paperwork. What comes back depends on your own policy rather than on the practice, so it is worth asking your insurer in the same week you ask here.
Individual therapy sessions last 50 minutes, while couples sessions last 60 minutes. Assessments for ADHD or autism are a little different and typically take place over several appointments. This allows us to build a comprehensive understanding of your experiences, developmental history, and current difficulties through clinical interviews, standardised questionnaires, and, where appropriate, information from people who know you well.
At the clinic in Jumeirah Lakes Towers, about two minutes' walk from DMCC Metro. The contact page has directions, parking, and what to expect when you arrive.
English, Arabic, Hindi or Urdu. Being able to say something in the language you first thought it in is not a small thing, and it is one of the things people are matched on, so please say which language you prefer before booking anything.
No. If you already have one from a GP or a psychiatrist it is worth bringing, because it can help an insurance claim and saves going over some of the history again. Nothing waits on it if you do not.
Not here. This is a psychology and psychotherapy practice and nobody in it prescribes. If medication looks like part of the answer — after an ADHD assessment, for instance — a referral can be made to a psychiatrist outside the practice.
Nobody should have to infer this from a paragraph of small print. Ask how your information is handled, and what the limits on that are, before you book anything, you are owed a clear answer to both, in plain words.
Reaching out is the hardest part
Please complete the form so we can best assist you — tell us as much or as little as you’d like. The usual next step is a free 15-minute call with one of the psychologists. What you write stays between you and us.
