ARANTES, Lúcia Maria Guimarães    FONSECA, Suzana Carielo da. Writing as a clinical device in speech clinic. []. , 13, 25, pp.14-35. ISSN 1415-7128.

This paper aims at discussing some effects of writing as a therapeutic procedure in the so called Language Clinic. It is argued that its inclusion in the clinical scenario promotes changes not only in writing itself, but also in speech because it affects the listeners' listening to language. The specific nature of such an intervention is focused and the discussion carried on in this paper should provide specific and original theoretical support for clinicians and researchers in the field of speech therapy. Segments of clinical sessions will be presented and dealt with.
