Can Western psychology and traditional healing co-exist?
Updated | By JacPod
How do we know what our calling is, and what do we listen for? Clinical
psychologist and traditional healer Anele Siswana has had to answer this
question many times over his groundbreaking career.
From
combining both African traditional spirituality with Western clinical
psychology, to almost becoming a Christian pastor to reckoning with his
own sexuality, Siswana is an exceptional and fascinating human being.
"I'm a representation of modern and a representation of what we can call 'traditional', but I have found spaces of convergence. Because I live in Jo'burg, however, I'm a rural boy. When I got to Mount Frere where my ancestral lineage is, you won't believe it's me," says Siswana.
He tells #Dontholdback podcast host Nozibele Qamngana-Mayaba how he got to where he is, and where his journey is taking him. Click below to listen.
