Abstract: Throughout the existence of human beings, there are records of our ancestors in the process of migration, a phenomenon that continues to occur day by day, whether legally or illegally, people try to find a better lifestyle. As for the country, Mexico is a strategic point for migration due to its location, with Ciudad Juárez and Chihuahua being a step to cross into the state of Texas and to the north of the United States, Canada. Now, leaving geography aside, the phenomenon of migration has a risk factor for the mental health of the migrant, especially those who live in shelters or on the streets waiting to cross. A migrant leaves their home, family, friends, possessions and embarks on a journey that many times and for a long list of reasons has no return, having a direct impact on mental health because of what they see, because of the experience, because of what they feel, because of what happens to them in their migratory process. Conducting this research had a considerable emotional impact due to the conditions in which migrants find themselves, including transference and countertransference within that context in contact with the migrant.
