Abstract

FARIAS, Izamir Duarte de et al. Therapeutic workshops as expressions of subjectivity. SMAD, Rev. Eletrônica Saúde Mental Álcool Drog. (Ed. port.) [online]. 2016, vol.12, n.3, pp.147-153. ISSN 1806-6976.  https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1806-6976.v12i3p147-153.

OBJECTIVE: Obtain knowledge on the perceptions of professionals with different backgrounds in the health area regarding the therapeutic workshops at CAPS (Centro de Atenção Psicosocial - Psychosocial Care Center) units. The approach of this survey is qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory, grounded in the historic-cultural theory of Vygotsky. Semi-structured interviews were performed, where the participants were twenty-four health professionals from the Psychosocial Care Centers of the city of Pelotas, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The therapeutic workshops were identified as spaces that provide patients of mental health services with means of exploring their potentialities, valuing the healthy aspects of life, allowing subjectivity to be expressed through art, craftwork, and collective therapeutic activities.

Keywords : Mental Health; Mental Health Services; Art Therapy; Nursing.
