For eleven years we have been conducting a research that consists in a proposal of intervention with families that look for therapy for a child. Through the psychoanalytical psychotherapy of couples, we try to release the child's symptoms. The aim of this article is to reflect about the maintenance over time of the psychic changes obtained in this clinical practice, which evolves conjugal and familiar levels. Making use of the case study methodology and the psychoanalytic theory, two clinical cases were analyzed, with emphasis in follow up sessions: two couples that had been in therapy for 3 years and 2,5 years, and each couple has participated in two follow up interviews after the end of the therapy. This intervention showed up to be effective on the elucidation of latent conjugal conflicts and also as a promoter of a healthy and supportive environment in the emotional development of the child.Downloads
