As part of the training program of the Lyon Association for the development of family psychoanalytic care ( adspf), we organise a special seminar that focuses on the cotherapy experience. Once every quarter, this seminar on cotherapy brings together family therapists, who have already begun their training as cotherapists in a program of psychoanalytical family therapy, in order to initiate them to post session group development. This seminar provides an additional learning experience within a meta-framework. We work on group bonding as an area of manifestation of family transference and as a tool for development through inter-transference analysis. Though this work, the participants experience how cotherapy bonds, when put into practice, affects the family and can help to resume and transform a blocked therapeutic process. We demonstrate, using a clinical situation, that this second degree approach, by clarifying the issues of inter-transference, increases our understanding of the group psyche experience in cotherapy.
