The advantages of introducing a certain amount of psychoanalytical psychodrama within family therapy will first be briefly and theoretically touched upon. The author will try to explain the changes brought to this technique, according to his clinical experience of these last few years. Two sessions movements linked to the psycho-dramatic play will allow to show how a transformation of the acted repetition into psychoanalytical play and then into full of meaning links can work in this framework. The links between the psychoanalyst’s work and the processes of change in the family will be made clear in this article. A combined technique, the family psychoanalysis with psycho-dramatic play appears to be an original practice, likely to restart subjectivation processes of subjectivation in family groups having difficulties finding ways to mutually recognise its members.
