The following research work is carried out within the framework of the Supervised Professional Practices in the Clinical area of the Psychology degree program. It is structured around interviews conducted with individuals who sought psychological assistance at the General Directorate of Violence. All the cases addressed involved cisgender women, most of whom reported that the perpetrators of violence were cisgender men, often their partners. For this reason, the study aims to investigate how psychoanalysis, from a gender perspective, theorizes this issue and to establish an articulation with the interviews conducted. The data analysis focuses on the construction of hegemonic female subjectivity in relation to hegemonic masculinity within heterosexual and monogamous couples. It concludes that these forms of violence must be interpreted within a socio-historical and cultural context, where analyzing power relations between genders becomes crucial.
