title: From typologies to guidelines: the constructivistic perspective.
abstract: The aim of this article is to identify changes in the psychotherapeutic field brought forth by a different relation with the process of knowing. These pages are going to render explicit how the therapeutic process has evolved following the changes in the meta domain of ideas and thereafter consider the ways in which typology concepts can be utilized coherently with these new procedures. Typologies are therefore considered not as clear, exhaustive reference parameters but rather as guidelines. In the article I propose to utilize many explicative categories as non exhaustive organizing grids. I propose as well to render explicit that we as clinicians participate in the definition of the problem and in the attempt to solve it.
