Family Therapy with Rumi

“Marriage depends on two things: finding the right person and being the right person.”
— Rumi

Today, the world is facing a crisis of civilization: families are breaking apart, children's mental health problems are increasing at a geometric rate, and anti-marriage movements are rapidly rising. Therefore, new answers must be offered to old questions.

In Masnavi Therapy, Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan connected Rumi’s centuries-old wisdom with modern psychology, emphasizing the individual’s pursuit of inner truth. This time, he shifts his focus to the family. Drawing on Rumi’s life and the stories of the Masnavi, Tarhan explores what we can and should do within family relationships. He highlights ancient wisdom through meaningful events and anecdotes, addressing how marital dynamics and parent–child communication can be strengthened. With spiritually healing insights drawn from these stories, he offers a map of inner growth for both spouses and parents.

“Protecting the family is one of the most crucial issues of our time. With his timeless wisdom, Rumi offers keys to transforming individuals and society. Through his striking and paradigm-shifting examples, he provides guidance not only for his era but also for today’s needs. He observes human tendencies, identifies them, and conveys them through storytelling. There is much to learn from him.”
