THOMSON-SALO, Frances. An infant's contribution towards the joyful feminine in perinatal intervention.Translated byTania Mara Zalcberg. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2019, vol.53, n.2, pp.127-138. ISSN 0486-641X.
The paper makes two main points, firstly, considering a baby's contribution to the feminine within psychoanalytic western notions, to try to align psychoanalysis with clinical infant mental health, to bridge these perspectives with those from infant studies (and neuroscience), linking psychoanalysis with nearby sciences and illustrating an intersubjective approach in brief perinatal infant-parent psychotherapy.
Keywords : psychoanalysis; baby; female; perinatal brief psychotherapy; baby mental health.
