Abstract

PONDE, Cristiana de Aguiar  and  JUNIOR, Carlos Augusto Peixoto. The transformational model: a clinical perspective to the approach of borderline patient. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2020, n.53, pp. 95-107. ISSN 0100-3437.

This paper aims to discuss a clinical proposal aligned with the challenges posed by the limit cases. In the scope of the clinic, these analyses call the analyst to live and feel with them their contents divided and designed, challenging the traditional tools of analytical work. The paradigm of transformation, which underlies the transformational model, conceives the analyst/analyzing dyad in its character of complementarity where no member of this pair can be understood without the other. The core of the analytical work is defined by the analyst's ability to move on the fusion/separation axis of the analytical relationship and, even so, maintain its ability to contain, metabolize and transform the unrepresented elements in a more palatable way when thinking.

Keywords : Borderlines; Symbolism; Paradigm of transformation; Transformational model; Analytical field.
