The authors focus on three different moments in the history of a therapeutic group for sex-offender patients. At the same time, they question the way they work in co-therapy. To survive the psychic destructiveness emanating from this clinical work, they work on their countertransference, putting their otherness to the test.Their reflections are also based on the introduction of media (images, photos) designed to support their patients’ subjective enunciation, as well as on team meetings as a space for psychic transformation and bonding.This article bears witness to the effects of exchanges between participants in the same group, the effects of the work dynamics between two group therapists, and, finally, the elaboration carried out as a team, between the various individual and group therapists. Working with peers mobilizes multiple processes of differentiation and individuation. Projection, conflictuality, otherness, and psychic bisexuality are systematically brought into tension on different levels, as if in a mirror, to reintroduce play where relationships are suffering.
