Yes, many clients at Cognitive Analytica move freely between Arabic and English during therapy. This flexibility allows people to express emotions in the language that feels most natural at any given moment. Sometimes, Arabic carries emotional warmth or cultural depth that English cannot capture. Other times, English helps distance sensitive memories or organize thoughts more clearly.
At Cognitive Analytica, we encourage bilingual expression because therapy should adapt to you, not the other way around
Language is not just a communication tool, it’s a gateway to memory and emotion. Many bilingual clients notice that certain experiences feel different when described in Arabic versus English. Switching languages mid-session can reveal deeper emotional nuances or repressed memories that one language alone might not unlock.
Research in bilingual psychology shows that emotional intensity, attachment, and even self-concept can shift depending on the language used. That’s why your therapist will never interrupt or “correct” you for switching, it’s part of the healing flow.

Cognitive Analytica offers therapy in Arabic, English, and French, respecting your cultural background and personal identity. Bilingual therapy is not only about translation, it’s about understanding the emotions, values, and worldviews that come with each language.
Our therapists combine professional training with cultural sensitivity to create a space where your language is never a barrier, but rather a bridge to deeper self-understanding. Whether you speak Lebanese Arabic, English, or a mix of both, your therapist will meet you exactly where you are, linguistically and emotionally.
