Separation from loved ones, leaving homes they love, enduring dangerous travel, and navigating systems that can feel cold or hostile. And the trauma doesnt end when they arrive. Many immigrants, refugees, and displaced families still live in a world that feels unsafe some carrying the constant fear of deportation others feeling like even after years of living here they dont belong, are unwelcome, or are marginalized. These clients need treatment that sees the hidden scars of immigration, validates their experiences, and knows how to reach and heal the root of their trauma. But if youre like most therapists you probably never received any kind of training on working with this population. Thats why we created this comprehensive one-day training with Dr. Shama Panjwani.
