CABRAL, Maria Aparecida Angélico. Vicissitudes of the observation and of dreams in analytical practice. J. psicanal. [online]. 2018, vol.51, n.94, pp.111-124. ISSN 0103-5835.
In this article I intend to share my clinical journey with Aviva and the emotional memories it evoked. It is a complex situation. It takes time to observe the internal movements of a patient, such a delicate relationship! The experience of observing a baby and the repercussions in the private and professional life of the analyst is described in order to help understanding Aviva's psychic reality. It was an early-morning call to share her going to the maternity that evoked dreams and memories. Reflections are elaborated about an integrated situation by a tribe in Africa as a strong element to facilitate the awakening of the mind. The observation of such a primitive tribe with the luxury and refinement of an atelier of precious jewels!
