Abstract

This article analyzes one clinical case from the recently published Power, Threat and Meaning Freamwork. The basic conceptualizations of this model and the analysis factors that they propose are presented: power, threat, meaning and response to the threat. Through these, a retrospective analysis of the case is carried out and new lines of conceptualization and intervention unexplored until now are proposed, based on the understanding of the responses to the threat as forms of survival and making modifications in their narrative towards one that allows them to understand and manage their suffering, moving from hopelessness to agency.
