From the Winnicott ideas “psychotherapy should normally be made by the overlap of two areas of playing, the patient and the therapist” and “if the patient is unable to play, the therapist willhelp him to become able”because “it is through the creative apperception, the individual feels life as worth living”, Idiscuss the Luiza history showing her sadness and apathy toward the world when the Guardian Council withdraw her from the maternal environmentand led her to a refuge house where she remained available for adoption. Furthermore, thiswork presents the analysis path which started with her loneliness and hopelessness and with mismatches untilthe discovery of music which gave to Luiza the opportunityto experience creative living and thus to rescue the feeling of hopefulness and especially the desire to continue living.References
