It seeks to understand how these processes shape the production of subjectivities throughout the life course. The study is grounded in the assumption that stigmatization is not limited to isolated events but constitutes a continuous process articulated through power dispositive that regulate bodies and modes of existence. Drawing on the theoretical contributions of Foucault, Goffman, and Butler, the research adopts a qualitative approach guided by the cartographic method, using semi-structured interviews conducted through a triggering question. Data were produced in a Reference Center for Comprehensive Trans-Specific Healthcare, a setting that constitutes a privileged field for listening to experiences related to stigmatization and gender dissidence. The findings reveal that stigmatization operates transversally across different contexts, including family, school, work, and public institutions, through processes of invisibilization, silencing, violence, and denial of rights. These dynamics produce significant effects on the (re)production of subjectivities. At the same time, participants’ narratives highlight strategies of resistance and (re)existence through which individuals construct singular ways of living that challenge cisheteronormative norms. The study concludes that stigmatization functions as a central dispositive in the production of inequalities, while also constituting a field of dispute in which resistance and possibilities for social transformation emerge. 2026-06-26T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48792 Title: A Dinâmica dos Relacionamentos Amorosos sob a Perspectiva da Gestalt-terapia Abstract: The present study aims to unveil the perceptions and meanings constructed by individuals regarding their long-term romantic relationships, understood as romantic-conjugal experiences, analyzing how these experiences are configured within the relational field in light of Gestalt therapy. This is a qualitative study with a phenomenological orientation, conducted with eighteen adult participants who were individually interviewed between March and April 2025 through online meetings. As an inclusion criterion, the experience of long-term conjugal relationships was considered, either in stable unions or marriages, ongoing or ended. The interviews were fully transcribed and analyzed according to phenomenological principles, enabling the construction of five categories: (a) quality of contact, differentiation, and relational regulation; (b) extended family field, parenthood, and transgenerational inheritances; (c) conflict management and attempts to sustain the bond; (d) asymmetries, violence, and disorganization of the relational field; and (e) rupture and processes of reorganization of the experience of self in conjugality. The results indicate that conjugality is configured as a dynamic relational field, marked by continuous negotiations, patterns of interaction, division of roles, and modes of regulating everyday tensions. The quality of the bond was associated with the possibility of dialogical contact, recognition of otherness, and negotiation of differences, whereas the maintenance of suffering was related to dynamics of rigidity, asymmetry, and restriction of contact. Conflict management emerged as a central element in the sustaining or deterioration of the relationship, with the conflict itself not being determinant, but rather the ways in which it is regulated within the relational field. The findings also reveal the presence of asymmetries, especially in the division of responsibilities and in the everyday mental load, affecting the experience of recognition and partnership. The sustaining or rupture of the bond was shown to be associated with multiple field conditions, including affective, familial, and sociocultural factors. As a contribution, the study broadens the understanding of conjugality from the perspective of Gestalt therapy by describing it as a relational process in constant transformation, traversed by movements of approximation, differentiation, and reorganization over time. 2026-05-29T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48785 Title: Infâncias na cidade: invisibilidades, disputas e possibilidades Abstract: This dissertation aims to understand how the recognition or invisibility of childhoods is produced in the city, articulating theoretical-critical debates, counter-hegemonic practices, and cartographic paths carried out in urban spaces intended for children. It starts from the understanding that cities have historically been planned by and for adults, guided by productivist, privatist, adult-centered, and technocratic rationalities that tend to restrict children’s modes of presence, circulation, play, and participation in urban territories. In this context, the distance between the normative recognition of childhoods as subjects of rights and the concrete conditions of their presence in urban territories is problematized. The research is guided by a qualitative approach, assuming reflexivity and the implication of the researcher-body in the production of knowledge. The methodological path unfolds into two complementary fronts, articulating the theoretical-critical analysis of the literature, inspired by the benjaminian montage of conceptual fragments, with the mapping and analysis of public spaces designed for childhoods in Uberlândia/MG, under the inspiration of the cartographic method. The theoretical-critical analysis highlights play as a counter-hegemonic practice and identifies experiences such as tactical urbanism, participatory budgeting and participatory methodologies in university extension as possible fissures in the hegemonic model of city production. The results show that the recognition of childhoods in the city remains marked by tensions between formally guaranteed rights and concrete conditions of existence. The research therefore argues for the need to strengthen public policies and urban practices that recognize children as subjects of rights and legitimate agents in the production of urban space. 2026-06-17T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48626 Title: Interconsulta psicológica em hospital geral: uma análise documental Abstract: This dissertation comprises two independent yet complementary articles that examine the potentialities and limitations of the psychological consultation-liaison model in an adult inpatient unit of a tertiary university hospital. Psychological consultation-liaison constitutes an important care strategy in the hospital setting, as it promotes communication among healthcare teams and broadens the understanding of the emotional demands of hospitalized patients. This is a documentary, qualitative study based on the analysis of 170 psychological consultation requests recorded between September 2024 and February 2025 in the Internal Medicine ward, as well as the full records of the initial psychological assessments conducted in response to these requests. Article 1 aimed to characterize the psychological consultation requests submitted by the ward team, considering sociodemographic, clinical, and institutional variables. The study described patient profiles, length of hospitalization, timing of the requests, and the main reasons for referral, using descriptive statistical analysis. Results indicated that most requests were made by physicians within the first days of hospitalization and were predominantly directed toward women, individuals with low educational attainment, and a high proportion of older adults, with greater concentration in the specialties of Cardiology and Internal Medicine. Depressive symptoms and the need for family support were among the main reasons for consultation, highlighting the relevance of Psychology as an integral component of care in high-complexity clinical settings. Article 2 specifically analyzed the potentialities and limitations of the psychological consultation-liaison model based on a detailed review of medical records and documentation from the first psychological encounter. A standardized data extraction protocol, thematic content analysis, and comparison between the stated reason for referral and the psychologist’s assessment were employed. Eight recurring themes were identified, with emphasis on women in caregiving roles for hospitalized patients, communication with the multidisciplinary team, experiences of grief and functional losses, and lack of information about health status. The most frequent interventions involved ongoing psychological follow-up, emotional support, active listening, validation, and psychoeducation. Agreement between the referral reason and the psychological assessment occurred in 75.9% of cases, alongside records of disagreement and nonspecific requests, which point to limitations in understanding the psychologist’s role and in formalizing care demands. The findings underscore the centrality of communicational interventions and the mediating role of psychologists among patients, families, and healthcare teams, suggesting that institutionalizing care pathways and investing in continuing education may strengthen psychological consultation-liaison practices as a strategy for promoting comprehensive care in general hospital settings. This dissertation reaffirms the relevance of psychological consultation-liaison as a tool that goes beyond responding to isolated demands, establishing itself as a privileged space for dialogue, emotional support, and the shared construction of meaning within the hospital environment. 2026-02-25T00:00:00Z
