Gonzalo Bacigalupe-DVD- Difficult Dialogues After Divorce: Attempting a Collaborative Conversation With An Immigrant Family
(Spanish with English subtitles)
This is a consultation with a Spanish speaking, single-parent mom, her two children and their therapist. The children demonstrate their reluctance to being there as one sleeps through the entire session and the other insists on speaking English. The family is involved in a contentious divorce and the mother wants the children to know �the truth� about their father. A Spanish-speaking reflecting team helps to normalize some of the dilemma that the mother experiences. Dr. Bacigalupe adds an epilogue to this program with his thoughts about working with immigrant families. Translated by Stephen Stutzman & Carlos Morales
