Abstract:
In psychiatry, psychomotricians can play an essential role in multidisciplinary teams. The specificity of their clinical vision and analysis, as well as their care tools, make them specialists in understanding the symptoms expressed by the body, and in body-mediated therapy. Able to propose interventions for patients in crisis, and to plan long-term care for stabilized chronic patients, they adapt to the temporality of the pathology. Committed to teamwork, they play their part in the multi-disciplinary weave of containing and structuring that the psychiatric institution confers on the most fragile patients.
