Abstract

Discussing the experience of voice in analytic listening, this paper describes the central role of the voice in psychic development as well as in the therapeutic process, focusing on two psychopathologies: the vocal adhesive identification, which is characteristic of autistic states, and the psychotic split between voice and meaning. Pointing to the difference between these two vocal phenomena both in terms of its origins and in terms of its enactment in the therapeutic relations, two modes of therapeutic intervention are suggested: interpretation of the voice and interpretation through the voice.
