RIBEIRO, Martha Maria de Moraes et al. Micro-traumas in the analytical session. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2007, vol.41, n.2, pp.125-139. ISSN 0486-641X.

Setting out from Freud’s initial conceptualization over trauma as being something which origin reclined over inter subjective relations (theory of seduction), developing into the intrapsychic concept (unconscious fantasies), and reaching the interpersonal concept again, enlarged by the microscopy of unconscious movements of the analytical pair during the session, the authors try to conceptualize what they name as "micro-traumas in the analytical session". Micro-traumas are subtle unconscious movements that occur in the transference-countertransference relation. They descend from the real relation between both and are unable to reach their consciousness, generating the kind of splitting Bion named as "static splitting". It is conjectured that these are maneuvers from the personality’s psychotic part, in an attempt to keep analysis in an apparent normality, supposedly productive. When originated in the analyst, the micro-trauma approaches the condition of what could be formulated as an unconscious iatrogenic. Using clinical models, the authors develop considerations on similarities and differences among micro-traumas, actings and "enactments". Micro-traumas and micro-caesurae are differentiated. The first ones, through a well psychoanalytically trained intuition might be transformed in micro caesurae which generate alterity and development toward catastrophic and creative changes.
