Enhancing Therapeutic Practices with Refugees:

Group Consultation Services

Advancing your skills as a therapist working with refugee populations. My group consultation service is thoughtfully designed for therapists who are committed to deepening their understanding and enhancing their practice to better serve the unique needs of refugees in a culturally responsive and trauma-informed manner.

Refugee work requires more than clinical skills; it demands a deep understanding of systemic challenges, cultural nuances, and the ability to approach care through a rights-based and intersectional lens and advocacy.

Why Join Our Group Consultation?

Working with refugee populations requires a nuanced understanding of their lived experiences, including displacement, trauma, cultural adaptation, and systemic challenges. Our group consultations offer therapists a supportive space to:

Develop Cultural Competence:
Gain insights into diverse cultural contexts and how to integrate this knowledge into your practice.

Enhance Trauma-Informed Approaches:
Learn evidence-based techniques to effectively address trauma, loss, and resilience in refugee populations. Learn how to decolonize your practice.

Navigate Ethical Challenges:
Explore the complexities of working with refugees, including power dynamics, boundaries, and systemic barriers.

Foster Peer Learning:
Collaborate with other professionals, share experiences, and gain diverse perspectives to enrich your clinical work.

Actionable Feedback:

Break clinical isolation:
Provide a supportive environment for therapists who may feel isolated in their practice, especially when working with complex cases such as those involving refugees. By engaging in group consultations, therapists can connect with peers, share insights, and reduce the professional solitude that can come with specialized work, fostering a sense of community and shared learning.

Focus on Intersectionality:
Learn how overlapping identities, including race, gender, and sexuality, influence the refugee experience while addressing social injustices through rights-based models.
