Abstract

ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to understand the psychologist-user discursive practices in the quotidian of a basic social protection service of the Brazilian Unified Social Welfare System. In order to do so, the observation of the quotidian of a Social Welfare Referral Center was carried out. The field notes were analyzed from the social constructionist theoretical-methodological proposal of making meaning analysis. The meanings about the psychologist-users relationship implied in these practices were discussed in terms of the games of positioning that they implied and of the social discourses that ran through them. The dispute of understandings regarding action plans between professional and user and the influence of discourses of moral judgment and individual responsibilization were highlighted in this process, as were the effects of the professional’s place as a specialist, the difficulty of thinking about strategies with a group, collective and community focus and the effects of a psychologizing view regarding the user.
