Abstract
This work is the result of a qualitative research that verified the perceptions of psychology interns, through semi-structured interviews, about racial and social class issues, and how these factors are evidenced in the Psychology clinic. The method of analysis of the interviews was Bardin's Content Analysis. The results indicate: restricted thematic knowledge; difficulties in critically relating concepts that encompass the specificity of these phenomena in reality; scarce theoretical-methodological repertoire of trainees to identify such issues in clinical practice, limiting the use of psychotherapy techniques that do not address the specificity of these demands. Finally, racial and class issues are not sufficiently discussed in the field of clinical interventions, which suggests that the training in Psychology in the countryside of Rondônia does not include learning that will enable future professionals to intervene appropriately to socio-racial issues.
