This article aims to explore the different functions of writing. It questions the relationship to writing in the context of clinical practice in an institution and seeks to analyse the effects of the work of notation in the context of an individual or group clinical setting. Furthermore, it questions the effects, on clinical practice, of writing a thesis. Both in substance and in form, writing offers a space of symbolization, an externalised topography that could constitute an extension of the body space.
