This book provides therapists with an understanding of displacement-related issues to help them better serve potential clients such as emigrants, expats, migrants, digital nomads – all those who have left their original home country behind and moved to a different culture and place.
With the spread of communication technologies, psychotherapists are expanding their practice to the online setting and into the unfamiliar waters of transcultural counselling with highly mobile and displaced individuals. Building on her research, the author brings up new concepts in therapy practice with emigrants, calling for a displacement-focused, transcultural approach for a modern psychotherapy practice, blended or online, in a world shaped by ubiquitous displacement. Giré’s own experience of relocations and multicultural families have helped her develop a personal approach to universal topics of the therapeutic endeavour, such as displacement, multilingualism, and shame.
