Abstract
Worldwide there are over 80 million refugees and forcibly displaced people, who are at risk of exposure to repeated potentially traumatic events and ongoing stressors during their resettlement. This article reviews the current knowledge about the prevalence, risk factors, and nature of mental health conditions in refugees. It also addresses the evidence regarding treatment of mental health problems in refugees as well as the major challenges for delivering better mental health care to this population. The article also highlights issues that clinicians need to be sensitive to when assessing and treating refugees with mental health conditions.
