Anthropology in the Consulting Room

Gutsgell Professor of Anthropology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Virginia Dominguez recently conducted an interview with academic, clinical anthropologist, and practicing psychotherapist, Salma Siddique.

Salma Siddique clarifies in her interview to Professor Dominguez that her work can benefit anthropologists returning from the field, who have experienced a traumatic event and observe continued disconnect to their environments.
