Tecendo a rede: a construção do caso clínico no atendimento institucional de jovens

Abstract

Departing from the Freudian notion (1937/1975) of “construction”, we propose a research-intervention methodology, based on the singularity of the case to the detriment of universalizing practices, to be used with mental health teams that deal with young patients. We introduce a trainee student within the staff during the period of the case construction. We shall demonstrate the effects of the presence of this agent in the construction of the case of a young patient, entitled “On efeito-equipe. truco! The value of a wager”. The meetings with the teams regarding case construction are established around three moments: “time of seeing”, “time of listening to oneself” and “that which remains to construct”. Throughout this research itinerary, we intend to discern something related to the impossible in the case construction. Thus, taking into consideration the real within the structure in which the subject is engendered, we search to cast light onto the way mental health teams conceive that which repeats itself in the clinical case, aiming the promotion of a concerned knowledge, which we name team-effect.
