Salma Siddique, PhD, FHEA, FRSA, FRAI
Salma Siddique, PhD, FHEA, FRSA, FRAI is an academic and psychoanalytical anthropologist based in Scotland. She obtained her doctorate in anthropology from the University of St. Andrews and later qualified as a UKCP registered psychotherapist and clinical supervisor.
Her main research teaching is based on the dialogue between psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and anthropology and is influenced by her clinical experience working with people in trauma resulting from oppression, abuse, torture, fleeing disaster and conflict zones.
She is a contributor to research writing as a clinical anthropologist. Her work and practice engage with the tension between collective guilt and personal responsibility examined from the witnessing of identity and belonging through disrupted biographies, institutional processes, and systemic oppression.
