This art-based, participatory action research sought to foster dialog between art therapists working on both sides of the US (Southern California)–Mexico (Tijuana) border in 2019. The paper summarizes the narratives from three initial focus groups, highlighting main findings arising from systematic analyses of verbal, creative and reflective writing input of participants. Identified themes include therapists' need to respond to immigration crisis; the realities of being a part of a border town; observing differences between communities; learning from the art of art therapists working with immigrants and refugees; and identifying challenges as a therapist. These themes inspired the creation of preliminary guidelines and are discussed within the context of mental health services around the border at this time.

在边境工作:艺术治疗师与受墨西哥和美国移民和政治现实影响的家庭合作的分享经验

这项以艺术为基础的参与性行动研究旨在促进 2019 年在美国(南加州)-墨西哥(蒂华纳)边境两侧工作的艺术治疗师之间的对话。本文总结了三个初始焦点小组的叙述,强调了出现的主要发现来自对参与者的口头、创造性和反思性写作输入的系统分析。确定的主题包括治疗师应对移民危机的需要;成为边境城镇一部分的现实;观察社区之间的差异;向与移民和难民一起工作的艺术治疗师学习;并确定作为治疗师的挑战。这些主题激发了初步指南的制定,并在此时在边境周围的精神卫生服务背景下进行了讨论。
