O acompanhamento terapêutico e a formação do psicólogo: por uma saúde humanizada

Abstract

This article addresses some questions about the courses of Psychology in regard to the formation of the psychologist and his therapeutic expertise. In spite of the theoretical/pratical advances carried out by the Anti-Asylum Movement, the Psychology courses in Brazil don’t seem to have assimilated such results in their didatic/pedagogical programs. Nevertheless, it’s not enough to criticize but it’s necessary to introduce a new and creative perspective in order to obtain such a formation. We think that the innovation may be accomplished through the undertanding of the importance of including the teaching of Therapeutic Accompaniment during the courses of Psychology as a practice through which it’s possible to attain the humanization of those individuals socially segregated because of psychic difficulties. We conceive the TA as a means of social inclusion, to promote the psychologist as a professional aware of his role. To helps us in the creation of new forms of relating to alterity.
