The author will present a methodology for structuring clinical work with migrant people. A model to adopt during therapeutic conversations, specific tools and techniques were developed by herself during the last 20 years, in an approach known as “Systemic Pluralistic”. The pluralism refers basically to an including position:
1) While co-constructing narratives, we pay attention to all the phases migrant people experience, including those prior to the arrival in the Country of destinatioN, as an entire cycle.
2) During therapeutic conversations we involve individual, sociocultural and universal levels: constructivism, ethnopsychology and ethology can coexist in a constructionist frame.
3) Not only the client narrates about himself, his culture and prejudices, but the practitioner does so as well in order to co-construct an “Ourself”: only through an exchange we can learn about worlds we don’t know and contemporaneously prevent an ethnocentric position.
4) We speak about “mixed identity” and not about “double identity” to avoid dichotomies and polarizations.
5) We work in interdisciplinary (as opposed to multidisciplinary) teams and construct professional networks that often includes the clients.
6) We meet our clients in different locations and not just in our offices.
7) We use expressive non-verbal techniques (collage, imagines, human sculptures, etc) not as diagnostic tools but as instruments that enhance and facilitates narrations.
