KLEIN, Thais  e  PEREIRA, Douglas Rodrigo. THE ANALYTICAL EXPERIENCE BETWEEN HUMANS AND NON-HUMANS: WEAVING CONTACT ZONES WITH DONNA HARAWAY AND HAROLD SEARLES. Psicol. clin. [online]. 2025, vol.37, e021.  Epub 23-Jan-2026. ISSN 0103-5665.  https://doi.org/10.33208/pc1980-5438v037e021.

The aim of this article is to establish a dialogue between the considerations of psychoanalyst Harold Searles and Donna Haraway regarding human and non-human environment, in order to outline some reflections from this perspective on the analytical experience. Haraway’s proposal of weaving contact zones, that is, going against the grain of modern dualism that conceives human existence as separate from the surrounding world, resonates similarly with Searles’ discussions on the non-human environment in the analytical experience, particularly with schizophrenic patients. The dialogue between these two authors involves an epistemological, political, and clinical discussion aimed at shifting away from a modern, white, and European conception of a subject distanced from the world. In this context, psychoanalysis makes the walls of consulting rooms permeable membranes, unlike the rigid barriers erected by the radical exteriority of the otherness that separates us from the other, making us accountable for the relationships we are part of.
