This volume addresses the complexities involved in attending to the
mental health of refugees. It covers theory and research as well as
clinical and field applications, emphasising the psychotherapeutic
perspective. It explores the delicate balance between accepting the
resilience of refugees whilst not neglecting their psychological
needs, within a framework that avoids pathologising their
condition. Moreover, it deals with the difficulties in delineating
the various relevant intersecting perspectives to the refugee
reality, e.g. psychological, socio-political, legal, organisational
and ethical. The book introduces important considerations about the
actual psychotherapy with refugees (in individual, family and group
settings) but in addition, it encourages the introduction of
therapeutic elements to all types of work with refugees. Thus, it
argues for the necessity of approaching every facet of the refugee
experience from a therapeutic perspective; this is why the title
refers to therapeutic care rather than to psychotherapy.
