THE PSYCHOSOMATIC RESPONSE, Workshop
PURA CANCINA
The psychosomatic has typically been dealt with as a “disorder,” an “illness or condition,” or a “phenomenon,” but is best described as a “response.” Labels have their clinical consequences; through clinical examples our workshop will examine the assumptions behind these terms.
