Abstract The present study aimed to describe the characteristics of the psychodynamic psychotherapeutic process of a child with a pregnant therapist and to identify possible repercussions of this pregnancy in the treatment. A descriptive, longitudinal study was conducted, based on systematic single case study procedure. The participants were an eight-year-old girl and her therapist who became pregnant during treatment. Forty psychotherapeutic sessions were analyzed through Child Psychotherapy Q-Set procedure. The therapeutic process was divided into four periods related to the therapist’s pregnancy: (1) the therapist was not pregnant; (2) therapist knew of her pregnancy but the topic had not been verbalized; (3) the pregnancy was treated in the therapeutic setting; (4) return of maternity leave. The results demonstrated that the therapist has adopted a less neutral stance, used less limits, and breaks and pauses in treatment were increasingly discussed. It was concluded that the therapist´s pregnancy influences the therapeutic setting in a marked way.

The following essay explores particular phases in the life of one man (a single case study) and examines how he considers turning points in his life that led to a long period of substance use, both as an immigrant in the country and as a working man in his home country, followed by a cessation of use and the beginning stages of recovery. / Para el migrante, viajar en busca de trabajo es díficil, ya sea que trabaje en agricultura o en otras labores.
