Permission to Come Home - Reclaiming Mental Health as Asian Americans (Hardcover)

Asian Americans are experiencing a racial reckoning regarding their
identity, inspiring them to radically reconsider the cultural
frameworks that enabled their assimilation into American culture.
As Asian Americans investigate the personal and societal effects of
longstanding cultural narratives suggesting they take up as little
space as possible, their mental health becomes critically
important. Yet despite the fact that over 18 million people of
Asian descent live in the United States today - 5.6 percent of the
population - they are the racial group least likely to seek out
mental health services. Permission to Come Home confronts and
destabilizes the stigma Asian Americans face in caring for their
mental health. Weaving her personal narrative as a Taiwanese
American and insights as a clinician with evidenced-based tools,
Dr. Jenny T. Wang offers readers permission to embrace their mental
and emotional self-care while understanding and honoring the
richness of their heritage and embodying a new, complete identity.
In ten chapters, each one focusing on a central theme-from
recognizing emotions, to establishing boundaries, managing anger,
and introducing play into one's life-Dr. Wang presents a road map
for the journey to wholeness.
