HEGENBERG, Mauro. Session's handling on couple's psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Vínculo [online]. 2021, vol.18, n.3, pp.65-73. ISSN 1806-2490. https://doi.org/10.32467/issn.1982-1492v18n3.p65-73.
An example of couple therapy illustrates unchallenging possibilities of clinical handling, based on the analyst's clinical-theoretical options. Departing from the distinction between method, technique and frame, different handlings are justified in a session, always regarding the psychoanalytic vertex. The use of WhatsApp, suggesting a topic, asking, explaining the couple a situation, are discussed aspects, considering psychoanalysis and its boundaries. The couple's story, the biography of each one, the personality types based on anxieties of castration, fragmentation and separation are guiding elements for brief psychoanalytic therapy as advocated by NAPC- Núcleo de atendimento e pesquisa de conjugalidade e da família - from Instituto Sedes Sapieantiae's clinic.
