Who are Rebel Therapies?

Our journey began in 2017 when our founder, Munur Shah, experienced firsthand the challenges of screen and mobile phone addiction within his own family. Consumed by technology, Munur found himself disconnected from the present, feeling drained, irritable, and unfulfilled.

Determined to make a change, he dedicated years to researching the root causes of screen, mobile phone and online gaming addiction, and its profound impact on our emotions, thoughts and behaviours. His insights not only transformed his life but inspired him to help others break free from the grip of intrusive technologies.

Today, Munur leads a passionate team of specialists who are also parents, committed to empowering families to build healthier, more balanced relationships with technology.

Munur Shah’s Life drastically changed direction when he nearly died in the tragic 9/11 attack in 2001. This monumental day marked the beginning of his shift in mindset and his true purpose in life: to help others.

Munur has spent the last few years researching the impact of screen and phone addiction on society and mental health, and has become an expert in the field, offering various courses and coaching sessions, as well as further support which can be found in his book.

“It is a privilege to be able to share my work with others. Speaking gives me the incredible opportunity to share my journey and the knowledge I’ve gained about screen addiction. It’s deeply fulfilling to guide people toward a healthier relationship with technology”
