title: [Theoretical considerations on psychological symptoms in a crisis situation. Psychotherapeutic consequences].
abstract: The crisis comes from the breakdown of the usual frame in which one lives. This frame insures to the patient a feeling of continuity as well as his intra-psychic security. This crisis also creates an intra-psychic disturbance which appears under the form of multiple symptoms that are often hiding the internal conflicts. The psychotherapist's aim in a crisis situation is to give a meaning to the patient's crisis and to offer him by the relation and the new frame generated by this relation, a transitional field in which the subject will be able to solve his conflicts and work out new anaclisis.
