The practice of the clinical psychologist in child psychiatry can be a perilous task. His balance, as precarious as it may be, lies in listening to and observing the patient, but also in the use of precious tools of which therapeutic mediations are a part. They allow to experiment a sensory-motor anchorage and bring a multidimensional vision necessary to the comprehension of the subject and his suffering. By creating an intermediary space between the I and the You, the outside and the inside, they determine a place where the psychotherapeutic work can take place.
