Welcome to the forum!

Here is the most serious attempt at trying to explain the relationship between the native ritual and the field of psychiatry that I ran across.

Want to move on to headhunters and recruiters for the work force?

Yes, a shrink is a psychiatrist, but why the name? What's the exact relation? - Gocika, Sep 12, 2011

En español, loquero (shrink).

I don't know how to say all this in Spanish, but like Q's picture suggests, "head shrinker" could also refer to those people in stories and myths who shrink their enemies' heads.
