Resumen

Comunicamos el caso de un ama de casa malaya de 38 años que tuvo el diagnóstico de trastorno de conversión. Se creía que “espíritus malignos” causaban sus síntomas. La paciente fue tratada finalmente con Main Puteri, una ceremonia curativa chamánica malaya, después que tratamientos anteriores fracasaran. La paciente mejoró al tercer día de la ceremonia, lo que se atribuyó a la salida de los espíritus de su cuerpo. Este caso documenta los beneficios potenciales de la psicoterapia indígena.
