The power of bibliotherapy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786206239123)

The present work aims to bring to the public a constructive dialogue about bibliotherapy, a subject that arouses much interest due to its simplicity and proven effectiveness. Bibliotherapy, known as the practice of telling stories and giving rise to a therapeutic moment of dialogue, reflection and good humour, causing improvements in the physical and emotional state of people, with or without apparent health problems, has also been widely studied for some time. Considered a science, as it has a marked presence in universities around the world, with research related to its nuances and forms of application, it is a prominent theme in the academic world. This practice is presented here through an analysis of the content in the scientific literature, but mainly by the knowledge about the subject acquired over the years of experience of the author, as a volunteer in the Storytellers Group-DPS. As a member of the group since its inception in 2011, and coordinator of one of its teams, the author practices bibliotherapeutic activities at the Hospital de Base do Distrito Federal (HBDF), one of the largest and best-known public hospitals in the region.
