Abstract

The objective of this work is to present a case study carried out in the psychological shift in a public school in the city of Manaus and to understand the dimension of existentiality based on Merleau-Ponty's concepts. It is a study under the qualitative bias in which, for the analysis of the speeches, the adaptation to the assumptions of the phenomenological-psychological method of research in psychology was carried out. A teenager from the 9th grade of elementary school at a full-time public school in Manaus participated, accompanied by the psychological shift. Several elements were brought up in her speech that characterize her silencing, her pain and her suffering, carried by the bias of guilt since her childhood, and which was perpetuated in her adolescence. The psychological duty enabled the expressiveness of feeling and perceiving, the adolescent appropriated herself and her story and was able to understand that the possibility of self-encounter was based on looking at herself.
