VOLICH, Rubens Marcelo. Naming, subverting, organizing. The body in the psychoanalytic practice. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2016, vol.50, n.2, pp. 47-64. ISSN 0486-641X.

Despite the importance of Freudian ideas about the body and the relationship between psyche and soma, for a long time the psychoanalytic work on bodily manifestations used to require the representative mediation and the psychic inscription of these experiences. Many psychoanalysts have striven to enhance the clinical resources of psychoanalysis in order to deal with more primitive manifestations, which are before representation and repression. This paper studies clinic and metapsychological aspects that sustain this enhancement. The author herein demonstrates the need and function of frame management, transference, countertransference, ways of observing, listening and interpreting in order to enable the psychoanalyst to work with patients who live chronic or temporary disorganizations of their psychosomatic economy.

Keywords : psychoanalytic technique; frame; countertransference; unrepresented; psychosomatic disorganizations.
