Greetings.

You might search some universitiy libraries for the books by (first name
not remembered right now) Arasteh, psychiatrist at Georgetown U/George
Washington U Hospital in the 1960-1980 (?). Dr. Arasteh was of Iranian
origin and wrote at least three books on Islam, psychoanalysis and various
therapies involving Moslems (Iranians, Arabs, Turks and others).

All of his books (might some monographs around, also) were published by E.
J. Brill in Leiden during the late 1960s (?) - mid-1970s.

There are some other works available by Arab or Moslem practitioners,
published in English and Arabic. Levon Melikian's works (he practiced in
Lebanon and Qatar) may be worth considering and tracking down, depending on
your scope of research.

Dr. John Racey may still be in practice at the health clinic at the
University of Arizona (Tucson, AZ). He and his wife have published a number
of articles, many of which appeared in the British J. of Psychiatry during
the late 1970s - mid-1980s.

HTH.
