Abstract

PEDROSA, Samantha Pires Oliveira Freitas  and  PEREIRA, Eliane Regina. Coordinating groups in a waiting room: analyzing the process. Rev. SPAGESP [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.2, pp. 66-82. ISSN 1677-2970.

This article proposes to discuss the challenges in training for group work and the role of coordinators, based on the experience of coordinating groups in a waiting room held in a Basic Health Unit, from a graduation internship in Psychology. Through field diary clippings, we sought to discuss group mediation in this context of intervention, highlighting possibilities, expectations, and difficulties experienced. Considering the scarcity of studies regarding the theme of groups in the waiting room, besides an emphasis on informative groups, this study aimed to expand the discussion to the group as a process, exposing reflections on our posture and interventions, extended discussions to think coordinating groups and professional qualification.

Keywords : Group; Historical-cultural psychology; Health psychology.
