MORAIS, Mariana Vieira and KYRILLOS NETO, Fuad. Psychoanalysis and Therapeutic Accompaniment: The City as Analytical Setting of Psychosis. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.1, pp.337-356. ISSN 1808-4281. https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2021.59389.
The Therapeutic Accompaniment (TA) rises in the context of the Psychiatric Reform and, although it does not fit into legislation as an official public policy, it ends up entering several services aimed at mental health. The TA, which has as dominant key the movement in public objects and the moving setting, has been gaining more and more prominence in the services that are being constituted in the Brazilian reform process. We discuss, from the psychoanalytic background about psychosis, an aspect that does not always come first in the theorizations produced about the TA: its clinical dimension. For this, we use the method of applied psychoanalysis, which allows the psychoanalytic study of social phenomena that are beyond the traditional clinical setting. We conclude that TA is a space of privilege to make the subjective listening that is so necessary to psychosis, without leaving aside the political and social aspects that are attached to madness.
