SOARES, Gilberta Santos. Experience report: Clinical Listeling, HIV/AIDS and Covid-19. Estud. pesqui. psicol. []. 2023, 23, 2, pp.727-745.   03--2024. ISSN 1808-4281.  https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2023.77709.

The article shares an experience report of psychological care for people living with HIV/AIDS in the pandemic caused by covid-19, from the Campaign Volunteering for the Americas Covid-19 and HIV/AIDS. The proposal seeks to collaborate with the fabric of theoretical and technical elaborations on clinical listening, especially in its remote form. The virtual psychological care, of short duration, was carried out by 14 volunteer psychologists, the majority referenced by Psychoanalysis. The listening was guided by the assessment of the central anguish based on the symptom-complaint, assessing risks, stressors and supports, based on the notion of an expanded clinic, in articulation with the actions of the campaign related to the lack of medication and the lack of food, with referrals to the health care network. It considered psychic suffering associated with socioeconomic vulnerabilities from the necropolitics device. Emotional suffering was crossed by physical illness, by issues related to covid-19, and by updating feelings experienced with HIV, such as non-acceptance of the diagnosis, fear of death, abandonment, isolation and stigma. In conclusion, psychological listening provided emotional support to people in times of intense psychic suffering. Empathy, affection and solidarity were webs of resistance in times of health crisis.
