Are we dealing with a family traumatic pathology, childhood psychosis evolving into an adolescent borderline state, a problem of subjectivation? Interpretive technique will be studied in detail in relation to transference modes.
Resting on the uniqueness of the psychoanalytic process, the author presents the multifold modalities of cure liable to be used with the psychotherapy of adolescents.
