Mental Health Services for Asylum Seekers
A Place for Hope & Healing
Traumatic experiences prior to, during and post-migration (e.g., physical assault, detention, persecution, discrimination and being forcibly separated from caretakers) can keep migrants from flourishing in their new communities. Migration-related trauma can create obstacles to the someone’s health and wellness, preventing them from living to their fullest potential. CWS Houston believes that this should not be a limit placed on anyone, regardless of their geographic or social position. Mental Health services include overall mental health care coordination with interpreters and cultural brokers to help accommodate language and culture barriers. Collaboration is done with an interdisciplinary team, and case managers to provide integrative comprehensive care. We will support clients on their path to hope and healing.
