LIMA, Patricia Valle de Albuquerque. Care and Gestalt-therapy. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.spe, pp. 1051-1066. ISSN 1808-4281.

This article intends to consider the concept of care within the philosophical and theoretical perspectives of Gestalt-therapy, seeking to reflect on its applicability in the expanded clinic. The author's experience as a university professor and internship supervisor in Gestalt-therapy, will serve as a point of support for reflection on the care in the expanded clinic, given the link it has built and maintains with the public health and social care network in a city north of the state of Rio de Janeiro, through the offer of internship in various practices of this network. Throughout this article, the intention is not to propose specific forms of care but to reflect on the vision of care in Gestalt-therapy and the implication of it in the gestalt-therapist. Our objective, therefore, is not to indicate suitable ways to provide care in Gestalt-therapy but enable a deeper understanding of what we can consider care and whether the proposed view of care is compatible with the performance in the expanded clinic.

Keywords : gestalt-therapy; care; expanded clinic.
