Resumen:
La tesis de este trabajo es la de que la mayoría de los pacientes adultos que acuden a los consultorios psicoanalíticos han sufrido experiencias traumáticas emocionales durante su infancia o adolescencia, a causa de la falta de sintonía de la figura de apego; como consecuencia de ello buscan en el análisis el amor del que han carecido en estas etapas. Son pacientes a los que podemos catalogar como muy necesitados del amor que no han gozado. Buscan el amor en las diversas circunstancias de su vida y, en ocasiones, a través de altos rendimientos, si son capaces de ello, en actividades profesionales , artísticas, deportivas, etc. Al no sentirse amados y aceptados desarrollan un sentimiento de culpabilidad, a consecuencia del cual se consideran merecedores de castigo en lugar de amor, y, para evitarlo, desarrollan "estructuras defensivas de acomodación " a las exigencias y deseos de la figura de apego, para evitar ser traumatizados de nuevo. En el tratamiento, el analista ha de crear un ambiente que permita la expresión libre de sus emociones y se apoye en la hermenéutica de la confianza.

Abstract:
The thesis of this essay is the fact that most mature patients that attend a psychoanalytic consultancy have suffered emotional traumatic experiences during their childhood or their adolescent period because of lack of sympathy with the person to whom they were attached; as a consequence, in their analytical process they look for the love they have lacked during those periods. They are patients whom we could classify as patients in very high need of the love they have not enjoyed. They look for this love in the several stages of their lives and, in some cases, through a high performance, if they are able to, in professional, artistic or sport activities etc. As they do not feel appreciated and accepted, they develop a feeling of guilt, and because of this they consider themselves worthy of punishment rather than of love and, in order to avoid this, they develop "defensive structures " that adapt themselves to the requirements and wishes of the person to whom they are attached, in order to prevent being traumatized again. In the treatment process, the analyst must produce an environment that allows the free presentation of the patient's emotions and that is based upon the hermeneutics of mutual trust.
