El trastorno del espectro autista y un acercamiento al tratamiento desde el modelo psicoanalítico.

Abstract

Autism spectrum disorder, from psychoanalysis, is defined as a serious condition and not as a pathology of child development, It is of interest in mental health, due to its high global prevalence. Autism requires a definitive diagnosis for an early intervention, which favors the best quality of life of the patient therefore, the present work seeks to develop a conceptual theoretical framework on autism spectrum disorder through the literature review for the recognition of effective treatment from the psychoanalytic model. Through bibliographic research, we seek to obtain relevant, reliable and updated information, Under the epistemological approach there is an approach to the conceptualization of autism for psychology in general, under a pathological perspective, and a conceptual framework is presented from the point of view of psychoanalysis, oriented to the identification of the symbiosis between mother and child. Likewise, the analyst's psychotherapeutic purpose, and its therapeutic role, for intervention in the autism spectrum disorder is identified.
