The work is inspired by the psychoanalytic treatment of a family in which a secret emerges relating to sexual abuse in the previous generation. What reveals the traumatic nature are the symptoms of the child who expresses violence and contempt towards the parents, which make the treatment difficult and tortuous. There is a need for containment through an expanded setting with a change in setting in which residual parenthood is valorised. At the same time we proceed by giving voice and recognition to the mental pain deposited through the secret. To do this we must go through painful feelings that refer to the inhospitable territories of the inhuman. Real arid and swampy areas where the subject’s mental life has no value. The therapeutic work proceeds slowly in the construction of an us capable of producing elements of imageability and thought.
Keywords: the traumatic and the family secret, sexual abuse, extended setting and variation of setting, violence and conflict.
