[Insights into the clinic of incest and incestuality].

Abstract

Incest and incestuality bring us back to anto-edipal families and the presence of unprocessed transgenerational elements. Clinicians working with these families and patients are tested in their counter-transference. Nevertheless, what a "gratification" it is when patients regain greater autonomy, self-esteem and desire. Then something of their own history is rewritten, at a greater distance from certain ghosts.
