Abstract

Whether acute or chronic, pain leads to a reorganization of the subject's psychic functioning, and thus to a different interpretation of his or her own painful experience. To transform the experience, pain must be addressed in all its biopsychosocial components, and through the use of various therapeutic devices, with the hope of overcoming it.

Keywords: accompagnement; douleur; listening; multi-professional team; pain; psychological work; support; travail psychique; écoute; équipe pluriprofessionnelle.
