The symptom in the psychotherapy of a dysphasic child: analysis of his dynamic function from a psychoanalytical perspective

In this article we analyze the specificity of the psychotherapy of a dysphasic child, based on a clinical case. Our aim is to show the succession of logical moments that give ever newer places to the symptom. The study of a particular clinical sequence will allow us to question the value of the symptom and its inseparable association with speech in the transference relationship, in order to discuss the "subjectivation" process at work in this child. This discussion will also allow us to situate the main specific characteristics of the psychotherapeutic approach as compared to approaches of other professionals who treat dysphasic children.
