As asas do Capitão Leleco: relato de experiência de atendimento clínico em Gestalt-terapia com crianças

Abstract

The present work aims to report the experience in supervised internships I and II, carried out at the Psychology Service of the Federal University of Recôncavo da Bahia, with a 7 year old male child. The approach that based the work was the Gestalt therapy, specifically related to the clinic with children. Considering that no practice occurs in isolation and outside a social context, it is necessary to discuss the space where I could be inserted throughout the semesters of 2017.1 and 2017.2. In this way, I situate which internship took place in the Psychology Service of the University Federal do Recôncavo da Bahia, which provides services to the community of the city and region since 2011. On the Santo Antônio de Jesus campus, at the Health Sciences Center, the space was inaugurated in 2014 to offer services to the external and internal communities, such as the psychological duty and open-door psychology, respectively, in addition to serving as basic and supervised internship field for students. Part of the service are coordinator, secretary, psychologists, cleaning staff, teachers and students from Psychology. In addition to structural and functional aspects, I consider it essential to point out that the service is located in a region with a high rate of violence and where trade is characteristic for the population, having a portrait of social inequalities. Such aspects do not determine the public that seeks psychological care, but it is necessary to pay attention to the different complaints presented, which are brought by people from different places in the city and from different realities. That was a fact that I included in this report, since the child lives in a peripheral location, which influenced some aspects of their development that could appear during the meetings.
