If analysis is the daily practice of the psychoanalyst, the first interviews are the inevitable prologue to this work. They can be a prologue bigger than analysis itself and even be the only contact, in the case of non-continuity Further than approaching, in this article, the psychoanalytic method in operation since the first encounters with the patient - fluctuating attention to any and every bit of material which shows up, the search for a kind of interaction which will provide the construction of some analytic meaning, communicating to the patient something unknown to himself -1 attempted to develop the specificities when treating children, illustrating my considerations with clinical vignettes.
