TY - BOOK AU - Charbit,Joseph TI - The Impact of a Metapsychologic Reformulation of the Dream on Unconcious Beliefs PY - 2008///. N1 - 2 N2 - The metapsychological reformulation of the dream consists in bringing out and exploring the dreamer’s implicit representation of his internal world. By reversing the direction of the projective vector, it goes up from each image of the dream toward the corresponding internal agent. It transforms the contents into containers. It gives access to a distanced representation of the internal agents and their conflicts. It softens the barrier between the conscious and the unconscious. It reveals the unconscious insight. We illustrate the impact of this method by recounting dreams and the effect of their reformulation on a short family therapy of a suicidal teenager. This reformulation, by rapidly restoring the narcissistic and trans-narcissistic foundations, decreases the suicidal and dissociative risks and reshaping defenses while supporting the family’s acceptance of the process of individuation. It simply puts forth assumptions on what the subject unconsciously has on the tip of his tongue. It thus makes possible, without risks, greater use of the mythopoetic capacities of the analyst, while underlining and reactivating those of the subject and the family. In this sense, the metapsychological reformulation might be a mythopoetic reformulation UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-revue-de-psychotherapie-psychanalytique-de-groupe-2007-2-page-121?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
