VALANSI, Luciana  e  MORSCH, Denise Streit. The psychologist as a facilitator of family intervention in case of neonatal intensive care. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2004, vol.24, n.2, pp. 112-119. ISSN 1414-9893.

In this article we present the care in the interactive process between the baby and his family as one of the priorities of the psychologist in a neonatal intensive care unit. We will characterize the environment of a NICU, and then discuss the family moment based on the experiences that happened during the pregnancy and the ones caused by a premature or risk labor. After comprehending these two aspects - the environment and the moment that the different family characters are going through - we will discuss some of the attention that a psychologist can offer, providing health through the facilitation for the family interaction.
