In this paper the authors try to illustrate the ferenczian’s idea of comforting preparatory treatment at the light of the concept of hypercycle. In this way it’s possible to shift the focus of therapeutic action at the very first phases of the meeting with the patient; sometimes these clinical happenings could be critical in order to face psychopathological actions of the patient, frequently fast and non-negotiable. The authors believe that, in these cases, it’s capital to avoid these traps (called orphic-hypercyclic) in order to guarantee both the development and the beginning of the psychoanalytic process.
