Abstract
This work is a traineeship experience report of Creativity Workshop, conducted with homeless people. This type of intervention needs to serve populations that are frequently beyond the traditional psychology services. Uses expressive techniques as a means to human experience and its purpose is to promote the transformation of relationships and expand the existential horizon of each participant. The theoretical perspective adopted about work with homeless people sought to distance from the pathologizing of different behavior and morally established and prioritize the valuation, approximation and recognition of different ways of being in the world. The experience described here has served this purpose insofar as the participants were able to reflect and share their knowledge, histories and culture, feeling appreciated recognizing or constructing and communicating their critical position regarding a certain concrete and cultural institutionalization of social welfare and psychological services directed to this public. Thus, we understand that the Creativity Workshop favored common affectations between researcher, researched and institution, in an exercise of ressignification about the psychological doing and its transforming potential.
