Analysis of the helplessness of a five-year old girl

Based on the case of a five-year-old girl, we present here a working method developed at a public clinic specialized in the psychoanalysis of children. We discuss the importance of a specific methodology for psychoanalytic treatment of children, whereby both children and parents are treated separately by the same psychologist. The conclusions indicate the usefulness of this approach for the children's mental health.
