LANZA, Hugo Ribeiro. Frantz Fanon and Psychology: Contributions to the Clinical Practice. []. , 21, 3, pp.1144-1159. ISSN 1808-4281.  https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2021.62732.

Frantz Fanon, an Antillean doctor and psychiatrist, was a prominent thinker for the analyzes of colonialism, actively contributing to psychoanalysis, psychology, philosophy, sociology and political sciences. His works are important to understand how the dynamics of colonialism were and are determining factors for societies, both colonized and colonizing, as well as for the subjective constitution of individuals. This article seeks to understand how Frantz Fanon's theoretical productions can collaborate with a clinical psychology in the Brazilian context. Thus, the present work is structured based on Fanonian studies on the relationship between racism, colonialism and capitalism, which underlie the theorist's thinking. Considering that psychology in Brazil makes studies on coloniality and race invisible, and actively contributes to racism, this work aims to outline notes for the construction of a decolonial psychological clinical project, based on the dialogue between the work of Frantz Fanon and contemporary theorists, especially Brazilians.
