RESUMO

Community Therapy (CT) may aid to shelter Health Service users emotional conflicts which result from psychosomatic manifestations which are present in Family Health Strategy (FHS) demands. New ways to shelter have to be implemented to receive those people under psychic suffering. The aim of this search was to point users comprehension on Community Therapy carried in a Nursing High School in a city in Minas Gerais State, as well to identify implications in their way of living. It is a descriptive case study, with qualitative approach. Data collection was made through a half-structuralized interview. Search subjects were five CT users, who were present in at least five meetings, in 2007. In data analysis and discussion, three main themes were identified: the reasons which led users to seek CT; Users comprehension on CT and CT implications in its user lives. The results showed that, in CT user minds, it is a place where they can talk, to relieve, to be listened, to overcome sadness and fear feelings as well to get out of isolation. For them, CT allows experience exchange as well learning. This new way of sheltering is based on light technologies that, when are present in Basic Attention, may have implications in the users way of living, allowing to establish new ties and new kinds of relationship. It also develops empowerment, resilient capacity as well family relationship. We are sure that CT may contribute for a humanized sheltering, help to create mutual community nets and to promote citizenship.
