Psicologia em movimento: encontro de saberes e fazeres entre psicologia e MST para o cuidado integral em saúde mental do campo

Abstract

Brazilian psychology is eminently urban, with its origins embedded in European sources and marked by colonial parameters that do not reach the complexity of our reality. Its insertion in the rural context is recent and despite advances, the work of psychologists is still based on the hegemonic model, presenting problems and challenges to be overcome for integral mental health care in the rural area. The present study is a qualitative research and is based on the notion of non-extractive collaborative methodologies. The general objective of this work is to analyze the contributions of the MST Mental Health Network to psychology and, more specifically, to identify the practices offered by the Network, understanding the challenges of psychology for integral mental health care in the rural area. For this, we used the following instruments: field diary, narrative interviews and group process. The study is proposed in five steps: 1) bibliographic survey and systematic review; 2) presentation of the research project to the MST Mental Health Network and monitoring of the group process; 3) narrative interviews; 4) analysis of research processes; 5) debate on the results and production of new paths, which will be developed from the meeting and dialogue with the mental health collective of the Network. An inversion exercise is proposed, in the sense of thinking about how the alliance with social movements and rural populations can contribute to a decolonized, politically territorialized and popular psychology, collaborating for the solidification of critical and contextualized care practices in mental health in the rural area, as recommended by the the National Policy of Integral Health of Rural, Forest and Water Populations (PNSIPCFA).
