Abstract

Constructivist evolutive psychotherapy for children and adolescents integrate Piagetian concepts with evolutive concepts in the understanding of the diagnostic procedure and psychotherapeutic process. This perspective understands psychotherapy may promote the construction of new meanings, and therefore facilitate adaptive equilibrium. The purpose of this paper is to understand and evaluate change in a psychotherapeutic process from a constructivist evolutive perspective. Using qualitative methodology, a case analysis is done, of a 17-year-old adolescent woman. Results conclude that it is possible to generate changes in a psychotherapeutic process from this perspective, in terms that it promotes an adaptive equilibrium in the adolescent, and a more differentiated and integrated identity.
