Os adolescentes formam um grupo vulnerável quanto ao desenvolvimento de alguns transtornos psicológicos, dentre eles a depressão, cuja importância dos atendimentos em saúde mental desse público é reconhecida. Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar a percepção dos adolescentes com sintomas depressivos quanto aos benefícios do atendimento recebido em uma clínica-escola que oferece serviços psicológicos na cidade de Manaus-AM. É uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa na qual participaram 10 adolescentes na faixa etária de 15 a 18 anos de idade atendidos em 2020 e 2021. Os dados coletados nas entrevistas semiestruturadas foram analisados de acordo com a análise de conteúdo temática. Os benefícios identificados foram: aumento da autoestima; benefícios no relacionamento familiar; benefícios durante a pandemia de COVID 19; diminuição/ausência da autolesão e de outros sintomas. Esses benefícios podem não significar uma remissão total dos sintomas depressivos, porém houve mudanças positivas na qualidade de vida dos adolescentes.
