Visita domiciliar: recurso para compreensão do cliente no psicodiagnóstico interventivo

Abstract

The objective of this thesis is to systemize the knowledge that has been built from the practice and the reflexive work about the visit to domicile in the interventive psychodiagnosis context, within the existential phenomenological approach. The detailed description of this practice and the presentation of the reflections that come with it, allow the increasing of the comprehension of this procedure, leading to the enlargement of the revealing dimension of the visit to domicile. The various accounts presented during this work and, specially the analysis of two assessment cases conducted by the author, made it possible to articulate the comprehensions with the theoretical readings, resulting in an analysis which enhances the home physical space organization as the revealer of the way its dwellers are in the world. lt also points out the subjective dimension of the home which is impregnated by the signs produced by subjective projections on spaces and objects, establishing a narrow relation between the physical and psychological space. lt concludes that the visit to domicile made during the interventive psychodiagnosis, is a very relevant resource for the child's and its familiar relations understanding, once it extends the look beyond the observations possible in the office space. The experience shared between the members of the family and the psychologist, during the visit, causes effects in everybody; provokes movements in each one: new facts are understood by the psychologist which on the other hand make the clients understand new facts about themselves
