| description |
This article analyzes critical biographical accounts of experiences with professionals and therapies in the field of mental health for problems related to depression. In a context of expansion and diversification of the discourses and practices of the psy field, it investigates the perspectives and questions of users of psychotherapeutic services. The main questions that guide this analysis are: In biographical narratives, what are the criticisms made to therapeutic practices and those who exercise them? Is it possible to locate any relationship of affinity between particular types of criticism and style of psy therapy? These issues are addressed in this empirical work, carried out in the city of Santa Fe, Argentina. Forty-two biographical interviews are analyzed to investigate the repertoire of objections made to psy therapeutics by people involved in psychotherapeutic processes.
This article locates a set of narratives that question: the lack of empathy, the lack of provision of tools, the lack of credibility, the hierarchy in the relationship, and, finally, the illusion of recovery. Each of these types of criticism tends to acquire a greater presence in certain therapeutic practices. In these styles of objections, there are more singular criticisms —aimed at particular people who work as therapists— and more generalized ones —aimed at the foundations of therapies. This work aims to contribute to social studies in the psy field by producing empirical knowledge about the experiential critical knowledge of people involved in different psy therapies. |

Este artículo analiza relatos biográficos críticos acerca de las experiencias con profesionales y terapias del ámbito de la salud mental por problemas relacionados con depresiones. En un contexto de expansión y diversificación de los discursos y prácticas del campo psi, indaga en las perspectivas y cuestionamientos de usuarios/as de servicios psicoterapéuticos. La pregunta principal que lo orienta es: ¿En las narrativas biográficas cuáles son las críticas que realizan a las prácticas terapéuticas y a quienes la ejercen? Un segundo interrogante: ¿Es posible localizar alguna relación de afinidad entre tipos particulares de críticas y de estilo de terapia psi? Estas cuestiones son abordadas a partir de una investigación empírica, realizada en la ciudad de Santa Fe, Argentina. Se analizan 42 entrevistas biográficas para indagar en el repertorio de objeciones que efectúan a las terapéuticas psi personas involucradas en procesos psicoterapéuticos. El artículo localiza un conjunto de relatos que cuestionan la falta de empatía; la falta de provisión de herramientas; la falta de credibilidad; la jerarquía en la relación; y, finalmente, la ilusión de recuperación. Cada uno de estos tipos de críticas suelen adquirir mayor presencia en determinadas prácticas terapéuticas. En estos estilos de objeciones se hallan críticas más singularizadas —orientadas a personas particulares que ejercen de terapeutas— y más generalizadas —dirigidas a los fundamentos de las terapias. El trabajo contribuye a los estudios sociales sobre el campo psi al producir conocimiento empírico acerca de los saberes críticos por experiencia de personas involucradas en diferentes terapias psi.
