Pathological and pathogenic interactions in Multi-Family Psychoanalysis
Abstract
This text treats a specific aspect of multi-family psychoanalytic groups in which it is sometimes possible to find that the pathological and pathogenic interactions frequently visible in a session with a parent and a child, also develop in a couple, between parent and child or even between brothers and sisters.
How is it possible then, to deal with this kind of interaction in a group in which one of the members of a couple, or a symptomatic parent and his child, or a sister and her symptomatic brother, interact ?
