6 days ago

Parakandeh is a podcast looking at the experiences of the Iranian diaspora from a mental health lens. Making a meaningful life outside of one's homeland can be deeply complicated, and for Iranians there are often more questions than answers. By bringing together perspectives from social science, art, and mental health, each episode explores on a different issue facing the community. Podcast is hosted by Kamyar Jarahzadeh, California Registered Associate Clinical Social Worker #123684. Currently, I am supervised by Dalia Safaradi LCSW, #65835.

#3: "The Persian Version" Movie; Generational Trauma and Iranian-American Cinema

A bit of a different episode: I discuss the film "The Persian Version" after finally seeing it, and considering what it can teach us about how to best conceptualize generational trauma for Iranian-Americans.

A great reading on the definition of Trauma from SAMHSA, as referenced in the podcast: https://ncsacw.acf.hhs.gov/userfiles/files/SAMHSA_Trauma.pdf
