The Valens Clinic

The Valens Clinic is a state of the art mental health clinic in Dubai. Since opening in 2023, it has been offering specialized psychiatric and psychological care, supported by a wide range of integrated wellness and corporate services. The name “Valens” is derived from Latin, meaning “strong and healthy,”. We chose it to reflect our deep commitment to helping clients achieve lasting mental wellbeing beyond simple recovery. What began as a small, dedicated team has grown into a comprehensive mental health polyclinic delivering holistic care for all emotional, psychological, and behavioral needs through a highly collaborative, multidisciplinary approach. Our holistic approach includes thorough psychological assessments, evidence-based therapies, advanced psychiatric care, and compassionate support empowering individuals to build resilience and lead fulfilling lives. The Valens Clinic was founded by Joseph El Khoury, Ziad Ghosn, and Rama Kanj, combining a passion for healthcare with advanced clinical expertise and strong strategic and operational leadership. Backed by a small group of entrepreneurs they created a space where care is not only effective, but genuinely humanistic. As The Valens Clinic developed, Sarah Siddiqui joined as Managing Director, bringing focused leadership to optimize operations, scale services, and support expansion into specialized offerings such as Young Valens, a branch dedicated to the emotional and psychological wellbeing of children and adolescents. We believe that our strength lies in our people. Our team of highly qualified, CDA and DHA licensed psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists bring deep expertise and international experience, united by a shared commitment to delivering exceptional, compassionate care. As a trusted provider of mental health services in Dubai and guided by a robust governance framework shaped by experience in leading institutions both locally and globally, we ensure that every aspect of your care is safe, structured, and held to the highest standards. The Valens Clinic operates across two sites in Jumeirah 3 and Business Bay, offering accessible, high-quality care to the community. Our multilingual team delivers therapy in English, Arabic, French, Russian, Italian, and Urdu, reflecting the cultural diversity of the United Arab Emirates. We also cater for medical visitors seeking the increasingly sophisticated healthcare offering in the country. We work with adults, children, couples, and both Emirati and expatriate families, addressing a wide range of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, ADHD, and developmental disorders, with care that is thoughtfully tailored to each person’s unique needs.
