Abstract
MARTINEZ, Ana Laura Moraes. Resonances of maternal and family unconscious in child symptomatology and in the analytic setting in light of a clinical case. Estilos clin. [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.1, pp.91-110. ISSN 1415-7128.
This study aims to discuss the importance for a child therapist to keep a binocular vision which both prioritizes listening to the inner world of his/her little patient and the interferences of the family and maternal unconscious in the child symptomatology and in the analytic setting. From the perspective that the infant's inner world is also, although not only, built by the parental unconscious demand, the further purpose of this study is to demonstrate how, in this clinical case, the symptoms of the child were influenced by maternal unconscious conflicts and by the parental care modality existing in such family.
