Transference in Institutional Work with Psychosis and Autism
presents Pierre Delion's extensive experience in psychiatric
institutions, focusing on the concept of the transferential
constellation. Delion first discusses the pioneering work of
Francois Tosquelles at the Saint Alban psychiatric hospital, which
enabled psychoanalytic treatment to be applied in cases of severe
psychopathologies. The book then explains how the transferential
constellation can provide a deeper and more effective understanding
of a patient's needs by engaging all caregivers within an
organisation over the course of the patient's treatment history.
Delion describes how regular meetings of all the team participants
allow them to express different and even divergent views of the
patient and to appreciate their complementary contributions to the
institution. The transferential constellation is presented as an
important development in the history of patient-centered
psychiatric care and a touchstone for its ongoing humanistic
development. Transference in Institutional Work with Psychosis and
Autism will be of great interest to psychiatrists and
psychotherapists in practice and in training. It will also be key
reading for other practitioners and caregivers working in mental
health institutions.
