摘要：In this paper, we discuss the possibility to consider fish for pet therapy. After describing the known effects of a fish tank on patient’s stress levels, we present the psychoanalytic implications of fish-therapy. We then describe some mythological representations of the fish in history and the concept illness and healing from the point of view of chaotic attractors and cellular automaton. We illustrate the practical applications of fish pet-therapy. We conclude with some considerations on how this technique could be inserted in the psychoanalytic practice.
