Avaliação da relação terapêutica na terapia assíncrona via internet

The Brazilian Federal Council of Psychology has not approved Internet Therapy yet, therefore, research is recommended. The technical possibility of offering such a service and the possibility of developing a working alliance were investigated. A system of registration and brief psychotherapy, which was asynchronously carried out, was created using free software. The therapeutic relationship was analyzed by using the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI). Clients enrolled (373) were predominantly female, with median age around 28, graduate and experienced Internet users. In the 53 therapies carried out, there were significant differences in the WAI results between clients who abandoned the therapy (19) and clients who finished it (29). It was possible to conduct Internet therapy, and the therapeutic relationship presented characteristics similar to those described in the specialized bibliography about the inventory.The Brazilian Federal Council of Psychology has not approved Internet Therapy yet, therefore, research is recommended.

Prática Baseada em Evidências em Psicologia e a História da Busca pelas Provas Empíricas da Eficácia das Psicoterapias

Tradicionalmente, la eleccion del tipo de intervencion psicoterapeutica para diversas condiciones clinicas depende fundamentalmente de la experiencia profesional del terapeuta y de su predileccion por determinadas estrategias clinicas. Sin embargo, este escenario ha ido cambiando en el contexto de la practica basada en la evidencia. A pesar del debate extenso y arduo en la literatura internacional de la psicologia en los ultimos anos, el tema de la practica basada en la evidencia ha sido poco discutido en la Psicologia brasilena. En vista de ello, este articulo tiene como objetivo presentar el paradigma de la practica basada en la evidencia en la psicologia desde una perspectiva historica, haciendo hincapie en el choque entre las diferentes posiciones sobre el tema y los esfuerzos de la American Psychological Association para desarrollar un modelo representativo de las distintas perspectivas teoricas, metodologicas, conceptuales y practicas con el fin de rellenar la brecha entre la ciencia y la practica aun vigente en Psicologia clinica. Se espera que este articulo permita contribuir para una mayor participacion de la psicologia brasilena en este movimiento
