About

Three perspectives that usually walk apart.

Daniel Caraúna is a psychoanalyst, a clinical and institutional psychopedagogue and a PhD candidate in Neuroscience. His work brings together what each field sees best: clinical listening, which welcomes each person’s singular story; psychopedagogy, which observes how each person learns, organizes and develops; and neuroscience, which shows what research already knows about the brain, emotion and behavior.

Beyond study and research, he builds platforms that bring mental health care to more people: from screening psychosocial risks in companies to training professionals and a care network run by psychologists.

None of the projects makes diagnoses. They offer screening, early detection, training and care by licensed professionals. Diagnosis is made only by a psychologist with an active CRP (Brazilian Regional Council of Psychology) registration.

Fields

What he studies and practices.

  • Psychoanalysis

    Listening as a method: understanding the singular meaning of suffering before trying to classify it.

  • Clinical and institutional psychopedagogy

    How people learn, develop and organize themselves, in the clinic and within institutions.

  • Neuroscience

    PhD in progress. What research shows about the brain, emotion and behavior, translated into practical use.

  • Mental health in organizations

    Assessment and prevention of psychosocial risks at work under NR-1, the Brazilian occupational health and safety standard, using the language of screening and follow-up.
