NOBRE, Thalita Lacerda  and  VIEIRA, Marina Porto. Report of an internship experience in psychodiagnosis with children from low income families. Mudanças [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.2, pp. 39-44. ISSN 0104-3269.

The present study aimed to present the experience of students and two supervisors in the care of children from low income families, in the Interventive Psychodiagnosis internship. We present the relevance of this practice to both future professionals and for clients participating in the process. To be performed, the psychodiagnosis in question, followed the existential phenomenological theoretical line and developed from the initial interviews (conducted with parents or guardians), playful hours (conducted with the children) and the devolutive interviews (conducted also with parents and children). It can be noted our practice as supervisors of this stage the benefits that their practice can bring, because from the client side, we received feedback from schools and family about significant changes in children's behavior. On the children's side, the self-reflection exercise on feelings and conflict resolution was more assertively developed than at the beginning of the process. From the trainees' point of view, we could also observe their professional growth from this experience.
