O psicólogo nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde: relatos distantes do SUSResumo. A pesquisa teve o objetivo de compreender as concepções acerca da saúde e do papel profissional entre psicólogos no cotidiano das Unidades Básicas de Saúde. Foram realizadas dez entrevistas com Psicólogos na região metropolitana da cidade de São Paulo. Levantaram-se informações sobre a trajetória profissional, o cotidiano de trabalho, o papel do psicólogo, as concepções de saúde, as orientações teóricas, além de expectativas e desafios. A Análise de Conteúdo das entrevistas aponta que as ações dos psicólogos são orientadas por pressupostos da prática clínica exercidas no âmbito do consultório particular. Os dados sugerem que a identidade profissional é sustentada pelos ideais clínicos e que as práticas são restritas à psicoterapia. As mudanças necessárias para uma atuação consonante com os princípios do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), só ocorrerão se os espaços acadêmicos e profissionais se transformarem em ambientes democráticos de intensa reflexão crítica e de produção de novos saberes.Palavras Chave.

The research aimed to understand concepts about health and the professional role between psychologists in daily Basic Health Units. Interviews were conducted with psychologists at the metropolitan region of São Paulo. We raised information about the professional trajectory, the daily work, the role of the psychologist, the concepts of health, theoretical orientations, beyond the expectations and challenges. The Content Analysis of the interviews points that the actions of psychologists are still guided by assumptions of clinical practice exercised in the scope of private practice. The data suggests that the professional identity is supported by clinical ideals and the practices are restricted to psychotherapy. However, the necessary changes for a performance in line with the principles of the Unified Health System (SUS) will only occur if the academic and professional spaces transform into democratic environments of intense critical reflection and of production of new knowledge.
