This study considers the work forms of psychologists in the context of the Centres for Psychosocial Care - CAPS. The investigation focused the knowledge about the psychiatric reform and the way that professionals perceive themselves as workers in this area. Specifically, the objective was to know how psychologists have conducted their daily work and how the deinstitutionalized care proposal has affected them. The paper discusses the relationship between these aspects, the care provided and the possibilities to mobilize them in favor of the psychiatric reform for the deinstitutionalization of madness.

Keywords : Psychiatric reform; Mental health; Psychology; Work forms.
