VAST – Landing and Settling: A Group Therapy Program for Refugees in British Columbia – Therapist Manual

This manual was produced by VAST, with funding from the Province of British Columbia under the Refugee Readiness Fund.

This manual is designed to provide mental health practitioners with a structured, yet flexible approach to early intervention with refugee populations who have recently arrived in British Columbia. The approach described within the therapist manual aims to assist refugees to cope with common stress reactions and to differentiate these from more serious mental health problems, as well as to support the personal resilience and problem-solving capacities needed to overcome the challenges of daily living that refugees commonly face.
