ABSTRACT
In this article, I examine how changes in technology, social organization, and economic opportunity are fundamentally altering the encounter between therapists and migrant clients. Approaches are required that take into account the recursive nature of the newly emerging two-home, trans-context lifestyle. I outline a second-order position and lines of questioning that may help migrants and therapists to situate problems in historical-geographical context, examine structural constraints on choice, and co-develop options for the future. To illustrate and enlarge upon hypotheses about the life experience of migrants, I analyze a particular Caribbean-Canadian immigrant story. (AU)
