In this article one case is going to be addressed from the theory, technique and practice of the Therapeutic Accompaniment. The program has been established within a plant of long stay of a psychiatric hospital, inside a more wide strategy of multidisciplinary work. The target population of the program are patients with a severe chronic mentally illness, particularly with psychotic and affective disorders. In the Case M the work has been made in coordination with the family in order to be able to return the autonomy and be discharged from the hospital. After a year of Therapeutic Accompaniments an improvement can be appreciated at functional and social levels.
