Heroin Addiction and Related Clinical Problems: 2010, 12, 4 (pages: 33 - 40)

Psychotherapeutic management of heroin-addicted patients. Psychopathological, relational and organizing aspects

Bignamini E.

Summary: Addiction is a pathological condition which is still only partly understood. the complexity of reality exceeds our capacity to elaborate and synthesize the information that is currently available, so compelling us to operations of simplification, in order to become operative. In this exposition I will discuss how, starting from a view of addiction as a pathology of relationships, and from a pragmatic vision of the available therapeutic techniques as tools of intervention rather than interpretive theories of realty, is it possible and necessary to evaluate the psychotherapeutic approach.
