Reflective Team: Voices that rescue the preferred identity of university women

Abstract

The paper shares from the narrative and interpretative analysis, the impact of the reflexive team (ER) as a therapeutic resource, in the rescue of the preferred identities of the participants of a workshop designed from the collaborative and dialogical practices, carried out with a group of teachers, retired university students and in the process of retirement. The analysis showed how this type of postmodern approaches provides a more democratic conception of therapeutic work, where meanings are reformulated and reconstructed through language. So the academics at the end of the workshop could realize that the conversation they developed made possible the generation of narrative novelties that although they were there, only through dialogue with the other could emerge. Therefore, we emphasize and share with the reader that the incorporation of multiple voices in postmodern therapeutic works is a valuable tool that enables the personal agency of the consultants, the choice and release of their own identities, collective understanding and understanding of themselves and the events through which they live their lives, as well as the construction of new options to answer the questions that the circumstances and situations present them continuously in the evolution of their relationships.
