Les anglicismes comme «debriefing» sont d'usage courant en psychologie. En langue générale, «debriefing» signifie un exposé que l'on donne à quelqu'un, comme à un psychothérapeute, après une expérience, tel qu'un traumatisme. Par contre, il faut se méfier de ce terme populaire si tout ce que l'on veut dire est une «(séance de) consultation» avec un psychothérapeute. 1, record 5, French, - s%C3%A9ance%20de%20debriefing
