摘要：

This paper outlines the difference between healthy and unhealthy forms of dissociation following, and in response to, traumatic experience, in particular the experience of refugees, calling on 30 years' experience in working with refugees in voluntary and public sectors, including 20 years at the Refugee Therapy Centre, London. It differentiates dissociation from repression, and looks at some of the specific traumatic experiences associated with refugees' displacement and situation, particularly relating to loss. Four key characteristics of resilience are described: 'psychic space', 'sense of self', and the use of a 'listening other' and 'healthy dissociation/resiliency'. Two vignettes are given to illustrate the difference between healthy and unhealthy dissociation.
