Perfil relacional para adolescentes: una comprensión de la adolescencia desde el psicoanálisis relacional.

This article aims to present the clinical instrument prad (Relational Profile for Adolescents) from its objectives and general characteristics, its theoretical and clinical foundation, as well as its scope in psychotherapy with adolescents. The prad is a useful and innovative clinical instrument supported by Relational Psychoanalysis. It includes 12 slides, the Analysis Format and a Manual that allows a detailed study of the relational characteristics to be carried out. It is aimed at adolescents from 12 to 22 years old, whose purpose is to identify the needs, emotional experiences and relationship patterns with their parents, contemporaries, friends, schoolmates, partner and with themselves. Its main benefit is at the preventive level, so it is useful in the practice of psychotherapy, research and teaching, especially in the areas of adolescent development, projective techniques and relational psychoanalysis.
