The aim of this article is to investigate, based on a clinical case, the way the transference maneuver in psychosis allows us to rely on its efficacy as a way to treat the Other and means to hold back the passage to the act in this structure. Oriented by the reading of Lacan’s writing, we determined that in psychosis the symbolic does not operate in the negativity of the pleasure, which makes it returns over the psychotic subject in a fierce way as a frightening figure of the Other. Consequently, the passage to the act in this structure is pictured as an attempt to withdraw the excess of enjoyment from the Other’s field. In face of this observation, the transference maneuver took as guideline the treatment of the Other to block the overflow of the pulsion; in other words, a work modality that meant to regulate the enjoyment of the Other through strategies created by what was possible in this case.
