Published: 2018-06-22

Abstract

Psychological counseling is a modality of care in psychology, very common in theory and practice, from the 4th year of the course, where students work in schools, psychosocial care centers and other health institutions. Within this modality, a ramification of the person-centered approach emerged in São Paulo, around 1970, being named psychologically on call, which would theoretically and technically be a nondirective tool of psychological counseling. In this sense, the purpose of the communication is to demonstrate succinctly what this category of psychological counseling would be and to demonstrate its non-directive motives and techniques that accompany the therapeutic process.
