Klappentext zu „A Self-Study: Being a White Psychologist in an Indian World “
Who am I as a psychologist? This book examines the role of psychologists in cross- cultural settings and explores the value of self-knowledge in the practice of psychology. Today many indigenous people are still experiencing a colonial type of therapy that is rooted in power imbalances and a managed health care system. Through narrative, story, poetry and psychotherapy this book shows the importance of personal growth and informs the practice of being a 'good psychologist'. It asks the reader to consider how cross-cultural experiences influence professional psychology discourse and practices as well as to explore the relationships between dominant psychology systems and cultural enactments.

Pressezitat
"Dr. Sojonky's dissertation is an exemplary demonstration of how academic research can be pursued with a story-telling approach to language, especially with attention to how language in all its manifestations both constructs and deconstructs our understanding of human being and becoming." (Dr. Carl Leggo, Professor University of British Columbia, Vancouver)
