<br/><br/> This article reports on an experience of talk therapy between mortuary staff and a psychologist from a palliative care network. It highlights the professional difficulties of these staff members, confronted with the materiality of the dead bodies and with the emotions of the bereaved. Through regular meetings and verbalization, the difficulty to differentiate between the place for the living and the place for the dead emerges. This initiative may allow these professionals to continue their work humanely.
