Abstract
The present work is an exploration of the challenges
I experienced during the first two years of the Constructivist School of
Psychotherapy and of the relevant deconstructions and reconstructions. The intention
is to re-read so-called ‘schizophrenia’ and the encounter with a so-called ‘schizophrenic’
patient in a constructivist perspective. But this paper is mainly about an
experience that has redefined the boundaries that used to mark some of my
constructs founding the ‘real vs. unreal’ and ‘consensual reality” dimensions.
Keywords: Schizophrenia, voices, consensual reality.
