Journal de la psychanalyse de l'enfant (JPL)

The journal provides a forum for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists who strive to help suffering children, their parents, and the institutional teams responsible for them through careful exploration of the children’s inner world. "The future of psychoanalysis lies in psychoanalysis through play" was Karl Abraham's comment on Melanie Klein's paper for the 1924 International Congress in Würzburg. He spoke of free play as the child's favorite expression, closest to his dreams, anxieties and conflicts. Yet child analysis has remained the poor relation of psychoanalysis to this day. The Journal de la psychanalyse de l'enfant aims to give a voice to the psychoanalysts and psychotherapists who strive to help suffering children, their parents and the institutional teams in charge of them, through the attentive exploration of their internal world. It publishes original works based on the clinical and therapeutic experience of authors from different currents of contemporary psychoanalysis, from French-speaking countries as well as from other linguistic and cultural areas. It aims to be open to all contributions based on rigorous clinical psychopathology and careful observation of the processes involved in psychoanalytic treatment. Its ambition is to convey the various contributions of psychoanalytic exploration of the psychic suffering of babies, children and adolescents, to present the most current research in these fields, and to echo the debates to which they give rise.
