Dissertation Title: Barriers and Facilitators to Mental Health Service Utilization Among Refugees in Sweden

My dissertation research explores the barriers and facilitators to the utilization of mental health services among refugee adults in Sweden, with an emphasis on the Syrian population.  Findings from the Swedish example can be used to further understand mental health service utilization among refugee populations in other high-income countries, including the U.S., in order to improve the mental health services provided to refugees and migrants.
