SIMOES, Emanuel Cesar Proença    JESUINO, Filipe de Menezes. Listening of a psychotic experience supported on the Jungian method: mater ecclesiae. []. , 17, 2, pp.759-776. ISSN 1808-4281.

Our goal is to present hohitak a person could benefit from its psychotic experience in a treatment based on the Jungian psychology. The work is a study of a CAPS user, in Brazilian northeast, while accompanied by a psychologist who worked with the Jungian method. It is a qualitative study addressed by the case report. The information sources are the patient's medical records from CAPS and the clinical observations' diary field, being converted to data by the empirical-descriptive process. The data are the reports resulted from a therapeutic process addressed according to the reductive and constructive method of Jung. The data analysis is guided through both reductive and constructive interpretation, articulated as a complementary reflection on the meanings already produced. The treatment could contribute to the reconstruction of the meaning of being alive through the integration of the experience with change the meaning of "mental illness" to "mental health", achieving the reduction of the antipsychotics, reduction of the psychotic crisis, and the overcoming of the side effect of the affective dullness with a germinal psychosocial rehabilitation of meaning for life.
