ZUGUEIB NETO, Jamil. Alternatives for mental health treatment. Psycho-pedagogic strategies in therapy for teenagers with severe psychological disturbs. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2004, n.23, pp.105-124. ISSN 0104-4060.

The present work aims at showing clinic strategies as alternatives to the admission at psychiatric hospitals of children and youngsters suffering from severe emotional disturbance. Concerning these actions, we emphasize the need of associating pedagogy and psychotherapeutic interventions, here represented by psychoanalytical orientation. After presenting a case that happened at a special school, our observations are based on the 2nd and 3rd Ministry of Health Mental Health Conference proposals. Such proposals are political and aim at creating opener spaces, included in the Single Health System, in Brazil, according to social demands and stimulating thoughts opposed to the traditional psychiatric point of view.
