摘要

The central theme of this paper is the reflections of a Bioenergetic Therapist on his experience of working with vulnerable communities. Although this paper refers to work with many different groups, «Vulnerable Communities” is equivalent to, «precarious human settlements”, an expression more often used by international organizations (especially the UN) to refer to «favelas”. The work is demonstrated by making use of two methods: Bioenergetic Analysis and Community Therapy. The search of an integration of these models suggests a possible paradigm expansion.
