This lecture is aimed at increasing the specificity of juvenile psychiatry in an interactive way with the support of theoretical,
psychiatric, clinical and literary texts. The objective is to find out how to intervene when one is confronted to troubles due to the transition from childhood to adult age knowing it is essential to respect the specificities of the adolescence and to give him/her the opportunity to build a new existence from the crisis.
The lecture's objective is to help the intervener (doctor, specialist or psychiatrist) to find a pertinent attitude when facing the adolescent.
Main themes
The first part of the lecture resumes different notions of the adolescence as a crisis, process or regular psychic operation; it is illustrated with clinical examples.
The second part treats specific problems of the adolescence such as:
- sexuality and "love meeting"
- paternal function and authority
- generation troubles and transmission process at the adolescence.
- psychotic troubles at the adolescence
- identity troubles and the rupture of bonds

The individual, familial and institutional psychotherapy will be elaborated through the above mentioned subjects with a view to
breaking the alienation, to allowing the subjectivation of the crisis and to opening to a better mental health.
