| Summary: | As our demographics change, mental health practitioners, counselors and psychologists all need to be aware of the specific needs of immigrants. In Microtraining's first-ever video on this topic, two scenarios are presented: school-counseling as well as community-based scenarios that touch upon language, culture, family, education, and work-related concerns which impact the well-being and needs of immigrant clients. Following the scenarios, three immigrants (Mexican and Asian), all of whom are in the counseling profession, discuss their reasons for immigrating, seeking counseling services, and moving toward a career in counseling, with specific attention focused on how to work with and advocate for immigrant clients so that emotional needs and social resources are met. |
