Hermeneutics of conceptions of ideology in Gestalt clinical discourse

Abstract

The text is an essay in which I address the concept and functions of ideology in Gestalt clinical intervention, based on the dialogue between the propositions of  Fiorin and Paul Ricoeur. Among the results of the study is that in the Gestalt theoretical system, in turn, the ideologies point out that the starting point was the break with psychoanalysis; Currently, there is the use of information and communication technologies, and inclusion in the SUS and SUAS. It is concluded that the meaning of Gestalt psychotherapy based on dialogue, on techniques configured based on the client's experience, and on its phenomenological foundation is to promote ethical action and an ideology based on the real experience. In this way, the ideological functions of dissimulation and justification of the psychotherapist's exercise of vertical power are overcome. The text ends by proposing a qualitative research strategy, in which hermeneutics reveals the phenomenal and abstract language used to disseminate and root ideological functions in clinical discourse.
