Resumo:
Violence against children and teenagers is considered a public health problem, affecting
families and communities. There are several implications that may occur in the context
of the social, cognitive and psychological development of these subjects, in the short and
long term. With the intention of guaranteeing the complete protection of this population
and considering the low access to individual psychotherapeutic support in the public
service, this work presents the proposal for a technical-technological product in the format
of a brief psychotherapy service protocol aimed at children and teenagers who are victims
of violence in the municipality of Vitória da Conquista, Bahia. For that, we carried out
qualitative research, of an exploratory-descriptive nature, in which we developed a
documentary analysis through a survey of cases of violence in the municipality based on
data from notifications registered in the Sistema de Informação de Agravos de
Notificação (SINAN), plus a bibliographical research, through an integrative literature
review on psychological support proposals for children and adolescents victims of
violence, with an emphasis on Brief Psychotherapy practices. In order to understand the
practices of public mental health policies for children and adolescents who are victims of
violence in Vitória da Conquista - Bahia, an interview was carried out with the
administrative coordinator of an Extension Program. The present study was developed
within the scope of the research line Human Development and Educational Practices in
Health, of the Master's Degree in Health Psychology at the Universidade Federal da Bahia
(UFBA) and aims to contribute to the effectiveness of health care measures for this
population, providing a improvement of care based on decision-making contextualized to
the local reality and reflections on practices, in addition to collaborating with the planning
of coping strategies and proposals for public policies external to the children and youth
population held in the municipality, seeking to offer security in health care.
