Border areas: the experience of a group of women migrants. From invisibility to the birth of a dream space

Abstract

This paper aims to tell about group psychotherapy at the Opera San Francesco per i Poveri Clinic. This device is made up of migrant women from different countries, of different ages and who present different clinical conditions, who share one or more traumatic events. Over the years, the group developed the ability to think and subsequently to dream.  It was this group activity on dreams that measured the psychological transition that highlights its growth, though this is characterized by continuous fluctuations.
