- Title
Relações entre religiosidade e saúde mental em imigrantes: implicações para a prática psi.
- Authors
de Freitas, Marta Helena
- Abstract
This paper aims to discuss the relationships between immigrants' religiosity and mental health and its implications for clinical practice of psychiatrists and psychologists who attend them in specialized services. It presents an analytical summary of the main issues raised in the literature concerning the relationships between religiosity and mental health, articulating them with immigrant's specific reality, as well as pointing to the importance of this issue in contemporary context and how it is perceived and drawn up by professionals of the PSY field. It concludes that more research is needed on the subject, whose discussion is largely absent throughout the training of PSY professionals.
