An analytical workshop around tales

The author reviews the difficulties in mobilizing the psyche of the disharmonic child in individual work, and then investigates the relevance of Jungian tools in considering the transformation of perceptions into representations within the framework of a storytelling workshop. How can the folktale, both the container of a form of thinking too immature to be grasped and the place where the raw material of the Self is organized, recognize its collective source in a group analytical experience? How can the world of archetypes help solve the problems of the group and the tension between the community and the individual? Finally, how can the apperceptive function be supported by speaking, by adult reverie, and by the Self of the therapeutic couple?
