CONECTAPSI: uma fenomenologia do atendimento psicológico online em São Luís – MA

Abstract

Contemporary society is undergoing constant transformations, noticeable in various dimensions: social, cultural, socio-economic, epistemological, philosophical and educational. Faced with the complexity of today's world, individuals are expected to keep up with these changes, developing competences and skills that enable them to act in a more integrated and sensitive way to emerging demands. Significant transformations have also been seen in the field of psychology, especially during the pandemic, which has brought visibility to a previously little-explored modality: online psychological care. The pandemic required psychologists to rethink their clinical practice, adapting to the new reality of social distancing. Since then, this form of counselling has become a viable and preferred alternative for many professionals and patients. Given this scenario, this dissertation aimed to analyse how the practice of online psychological care has been configured among psychology professionals in São Luís - MA, based on the phenomenological approach. The research was characterised as a bibliographical study and a documentary review, focusing on state investigations already carried out on the subject. As a technical-scientific result, CONECTAPSI was developed, a virtual catalogue that brings together ethical and technical guidelines for the practice of online psychological care in an objective and accessible way. The guidelines in the catalogue were organised based on the main recommendations identified in the literature analysed, with the aim of contributing to the qualified, ethical and safe work of psychology professionals in the virtual environment.
