Anastasia Tsamparli et al., « The dream’s paths: patient’s dreams, analyst’s dreams, group reverie », Le Divan familial, ID : 10670/1.e93553...
This work examines the place and function that the analyst gives to his patient in his psychic functioning. The authors worked from a transference/countertransference perspective according to which the analyst’s dream about his patient offers a creative path which reflects the psychic state of the analyst, that of the analysand, and its impact on the analyst. They took into consideration the different types of dreams experienced by analysts such as premonitory dreams et al. They reached the following conclusions: the point of convergence of all dreams is that they are linked to intersubjectivity and to the psychic transformation of desire with regard to patients; indicative of the transference/countertransference resonance; the mark of the different degrees of involvement of the analyst in the analytic relationship. These conclusions led them to formulate hypotheses on the conditions of their deployment: the fantasy resonance, a transformative encounter, a transitional space, and an act of recognition.
