ABSTRACT
Therapy, online or in-person, helps displaced individuals to better cope with the hardship of dislocation, to make it a more meaningful experience. It leads to personal growth. The term “migratory practice” has been sporadically used in migration studies that promote the view on migration as a creative endeavour. The practice of therapy with displaced clients is also a migratory practice and a creative venture; its scope is to make sense of a client’s experience of displacement, and to re-define the narrative of their life. Creativity is a driving force behind any good therapy, both for therapists—how they approach their work, and for their clients—how they approach their lives in displacement. The call is made for therapists to model this creative stance for their clients.
