Résumé :
|
This article presents clinical material involving the treatment of two patients suffering from delusional paranoia and psychosomatic disorders as the basis for investigating the significance of the body–mind border – with particular attention to the working through of body–mind dissociation. In the context of interpersonal transference-countertransference events, the authors focus on the importance of the analysand’s transference onto his own body and the analyst’s use of somatic countertransference. When the analysand is able to develop a relationship to his own body [as a “Concrete Original Object” (COO)], he starts to experience and to register mentally his body at a sensory level, consequently improving his awareness of reality and cognitive capacity. The approach outlined here is decidedly relational in nature – it mandates that the analyst draw from his own perceptions based on particularly intense bodily and emotional participation as the basis for understanding the analysand’s state of mind–body. The technical approach described here is a working through centred on the analysand’s body, strengthening his vertical axis with only minimal interpretative reliance on interpersonal transference.
