Ethical breaches and deviations of method in psychoanalysis: A heuristic model for the differentiation of boundary transgressions in psychoanalytic work

When it comes to childhood sexual abuse (CSA), gender is a huge water divisor. Cases of male victims are less reported, less studied, and receive less help. This paper reflects on some of the myths and misconceptions involving male sexual abuse, trying to understand social contributors for why victims stand so much in the shadows. Misconceptions seem to be highly influenced by social factors such as gender constructions, adding so many barriers that access to treatment becomes more difficult and leads to worse outcomes. The prejudice and invisibility involved are so strong that they penetrate clinicians, who are less prompt to identify and work with male victims. They are neither seen nor heard, are not perceived as victims, and therefore not supported and not treated as such. This is a call for furthering studies, public debates, social awareness, and professional training in the field.

Cet article tente d’examiner la question éthique qui prenait et prend encore une place très particulière dans la définition de l’acte analytique, depuis le questionnement éthique engagé par Freud vis-à-vis de la responsabilité de l’analyste et de la manière avec laquelle il répond au transfert de l’analysant. Pour aborder cette question, nous allons mettre en exergue la notion de désir de l’analyste et son rapport à la question éthique.
