SCORSOLINI-COMIN, Fabio. Person-centered psychological emergency attendance: ethnopsychological intervention in an Umbanda terreiro (Backyard). Temas psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.22, n.4, pp.885-899. ISSN 1413-389X. https://doi.org/10.9788/TP2014.4-16.
This study aims to present and discuss the implementation of psychological service in an Umbanda backyard in a city in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, its their characteristics, demands, difficulties and possibility of attention to community. This paper refers to a study of a collective case through two vignettes registered on a field diary about the attendances. Analysis was conducted based on the person-centered approach and on the ethnopsychological literature. Respectful alterity promotes due care to the necessities of the community. Emergency attendances constitute an auxiliary service in the institution, which allows conflicts to be listened and treated, considering how the Terreiro (backyard) works and its characteristics. It has been concluded that emergency attendance cannot be offered with the intention of differentiating the support already present at the backyard, but as a parallel practice integrated to its cultural context, in which people from the community are immersed. Innovations on the proposal are needed in the field of multicultural counseling and new researches are expected in order to continue this experience.
