Abstract

GHELLER, Julio Hirschhorn. The role played by the other. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2011, vol.45, n.2, pp.151-162. ISSN 0486-641X.

Based on clinical experiences with psychotic patients, the author points out the importance of offering them holding as an initial step, thus enabling the eventual achievement of a psychic working-through process. The reporting of two analyses is the basis of the subject discussion.

Keywords : container-contained; primordial countertransference; alpha-function; holding; psychic working-through.
