On Living with Two Hearts: Working with Latino Immigrant and Refugee Children and Families
Speaker: Celia Jaes Falicov, Ph.D.
Clinical Professor, Department of Family Medicine and Public Health and Director of Mental Health Services for Latino Immigrants at the Medical Student Run Free Clinic of the University of California, San Diego
Family separations during migration increasingly involve fragmentation in core relationships such as mother-child or father-child. Practitioners need to learn possible presentations of distress in children and parents that have undergone these experiences and be able to help them achieve sustainable reunifications.
This lecture presents and video illustrates “therapies of separation” and “therapies of reunification” that offer guidelines and practice strategies for clinical work with immigrant or refugee children and their families.
These migration-specific competencies are part of a larger multidimensional framework (MECA) that addresses issues of culture and context in clinical assessment and practice.
