The FRANCO Theory proposes a clinical approach centered on the dignification of the individual’s life trajectory through two foundational pillars: the "School" (what one lives and transmits) and the "History" (what one becomes as a result of lived experience). This methodology transforms clinical anamnesis into a formative act, reconnecting the patient with their existential mission and promoting a psychiatry oriented toward meaning rather than mere symptom suppression. Clinical listening is reconfigured as both a therapeutic and ethical tool, allowing for the reconstruction of the subject as an agent of transformation. This proposal presents clinical, social, and educational applications and seeks to expand the humanistic horizon of contemporary psychiatric practice.
