Interpretation of Dreams, by Rod Moss
Craig San Roque, community psychologist and psychotherapist has, for the past 30 years lived in Central Australia working within indigenous Australian circumstances. He has written many careful accounts of the existential realities of intercultural collaborations and tensions. Trained in London, with the Society for Analytical Psychology, he cautiously adapts and applies psychoanalytic insights to help negotiate the rough environment of Aboriginal/white Australian relations. Mourning Melancholia and The Echo Effect - on aspects of unconscious transference within black/white relations - is distilled from experience in a project co-developed with indigenous friends who are part of the Central Australian NPY Women’s Council, Uti Kulintjaku/Clear Thinking project, initiated by traditional healers (Ngangkari).
