DE MACEDO, Maria Manuela Dias Ramos  and  KLAUTAU, Perla. Analytical listening as a rescue and maintenance instrument of the social bond. Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.3, suppl.1, pp. 45-60. ISSN 2236-6407.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/2236-6407.2020v11n3suplp45.

This paper is result of a research developed with a scientific initiation grant from FAPERJ. Throughout the work, we observed that the emergence of small testimonies mobilized the participants. Although the narrative was of a painful experience, the subsequent reception acted as a potentializer of social bonds. In this sense, we propose to examine the clinical function of testimony for the performance of analysts in precarious contexts, where there is a weakening of discourse bonds. For this, we start from the premise that living in precarious conditions is potentially traumatic and excluding, even though there is a psychological effort to reduce the importance of these situations, trivializing the suffering resulting from the symbolic violence to which they are subjected. Our belief is that analytical listening can operate as a potential care instrument, having in the collectivity the strength to rescue and maintain the social bond.

Keywords : helplessness; psychic trauma; social ties.
