This paper describes and analyzes the ethnopsychology and ethnopsychiatry of the Kanaké of the linguistic Paicî-Camuki country, of New Caledonia. The Kanaké advocate for the forfeiting of past aspects of the relationship with deceased loved ones, and the creation of new ones with them as an ancestor. Whenever the past bond remains too strong, putting the relatives at risk by the ancestors' sustained presence, Kanaké healers and initiates may act upon the invisible world to preserve the living by severing the bond. Through the case-study of Sunia, I examine how the bereaved navigate between these norms and resources to develop unique coping solutions
