DIALOGUE BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGICAL DUTY AND COLLABORATIVE ASSESSMENT

Abstract

The search for new ways of psychological care in institutions worried about the services offered to people who come for it, led to the development of
practices as psychological duty, a service that has been more and more offered to receive the client, and the collaborative assessment that aims an intervention, traditionally postponed when psychotherapy begins, when necessary. Based on statements of students from an improvement course, on collaborative assessment, at the Serviço de Aconselhamento Psicológico – USP, where usually are developed activities related to psychological duty, the present research aims to focus the possible dialogue between these practices, and their contribution to the reception of the client and the
training of the students.
