REIS NETO, Raymundo de Oliveira; TEIXEIRA PINTO, Ana Carolina  and  OLIVEIRA, Luiz Gustavo Azevedo. Therateutic accompaniment: history, clinic and knowledge. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2011, vol.31, n.1, pp.30-39. ISSN 1414-9893.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1414-98932011000100004.

Discussing therapeutic accompaniment (TA) from a historical perspective, the article`s objective is to focus on some transformations this treatment has undergone since its emergence, taking into consideration the relevance of this discussion to understand and confront the challenges faced by TA practices today. Emphasizing the changes that concern this kind of treatment, either the demand for this practice and its objectives or the profile of those who carry it out (TA), we focus on emergencies and on the subsequent developments that come from the concern of the TAS regarding the management of affective and significant exchanges between them and their patients. Such concern has conducted them to an effort of theoretical TA systematizing, with raises important questions about the relationship of TA with the knowledge about what accredits them to practice this function.

Keywords : Therapeutic accompaniment; Therapistis; Psychoanalysis; Knowledge acquisition.
