title: [Containment as a psychological process].
abstract: To move away from the clinical simplification of the term and restore its full complexity, it is possible to approach the notion of containment through the prism of psychological processuality. Beyond the theory, the caregiver's experience in their practice and in their contact with the patient can be considered on the basis of a series of standpoints which form the sphere of the "capacity of internal containment". However, containment is not the be all and end all of care. Containment has its limits and care must also be viewed as a constellation of complementary processes.
