Abstract

This thesis is the result of a formation journey that proposes to compose a racialized clinic in psychology by means of the work in groups with black women. Whereas the general weakness of a racialized literature in group psychology, as well as black authors in the references of clinical psychology in groups, the objective of the research is looking for obscured bibliographic references that support the thinking about groupality with black women while claiming a proposition of groups such as quilombo, also comprising the search for theoretical subjects as a grouping. In addition, the violences against black women and the effects of these experiences on the knowledge production are analyzed, as in epistemicide, and also on the bodies of black women in a more comprehensive way, processes named here as mutilations. To carry out this research, the excavations of theoretical references and the escrevivências and poetics resulting from the meetings with black women in group process, in the records and analysis diaries, are used as tools. During the cover tracks in the literature and in the black women bodies, quilombos become encounters paths. In the present research, quilombo has been done as a formative process, meetings with black researchers and works found, and also as an opening of paths in the clinic, in the analysis, in the arrival of black women for the clinical psychology with groups.
