Refugees are people like you and me. But they require specific, sensitive counseling and psychotherapy, because racism-related dynamics have extreme psychological consequences for those affected. In this book Katja Schwabe and Eben Louw outline the concept of racism-sensitive counseling and psychotherapy for refugees. They explain what racism-related dynamics there are and what psychological consequences are associated with them for those affected. The focus is on fundamental considerations about an anti-racist attitude and practice culture as well as interventions developed from them and possible guidelines that represent a practice-oriented orientation for psychosocial counseling and psychotherapeutic fields of action. The book offers practitioners a wide range of approaches and a reflection aid for advisory or therapeutic action in specific situations.
