Abstract

This work derives from a clinical work experience with users of Centro de Atenção Psicossocial - CAPS II, a center for psychosocial assistance in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. It moves forward into the development of valuable views and insights into the clinical work and supervision activities for the mental health project carried out at this assistance service sponsored by the Unified Health System -  SUS. The focal point of this work is to look into the effects of group device and production of interventions aimed at building a sounder health and subjectivity, mostly relying on the tools proposed by Nietzsche, Michel Foucault, Lourau, Gilles Deleuze, and Canguilhem. With this idea in mind, the work has focused its action on interventions that could effectively respond to the needs placed by Psychiatric Reform.
