This book delves into the diagnostic categories applied to adolescents from a developmental perspective, offering an alternative assessment approach that considers prognostic and risk indicators. By expanding beyond the classification of adult psychopathology, Anna Maria Nicolò presents a comprehensive multidimensional perspective of the adolescent mind, exploring its complexities through a clinical lens and theoretical prism. It is noteworthy that crises in adolescence can often signify the beginning of a psychotic process that disregards the phase-specific tasks of development. However, in other instances, such developmental ruptures present an opportunity for positive personality reorganisation. Adolescence can thus reveal latent childhood functioning or facilitate new integrations. Consequently, accurate diagnosis and early intervention become crucial in enabling the developmental reorganisation of both the patient and their family. Drawing on clinical case material, this book provides readers with practical and theoretical tools to intervene in developmental ruptures, making it of interest to psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, developmental psychologists, and professionals working with psychotic onset and crises occurring particularly during the onset of puberty or young adulthood.
