description In this paper present the therapeutic itineraries in mental health of 8 users of the Health Mental Program from Family Health Center Pueblo Nuevo, Temuco, Chile, based on an ethnographic approach carried out between 2022 and 2023. For this purpose, I describe 4 nodes or institucional instances for the management of mental health illness, in wich the therapeutic itineraries are concentrated: 1) the public system, 2) the Health Mental Program from Family Health Center, 3) the private system, and 4) the “new age” medicine. Product of the tension between the institutionalization of treatment and management afflictions, and the uncertainty arising from the contradiction between therapies, diagnoses, long waiting lists (public system) and the monetary barrier (private system and “new age” medicine), I understand that therapeutic itineraries in mental health form experiences of “latent liminality”.

La “gestión agrietada” de los malestares: una aproximación etnográfica a los itinerarios terapéuticos de usuarias/os de un CESFAM en Temuco Betancur Alvarado, Pablo In this paper present the therapeutic itineraries in mental health of 8 users of the Health Mental Program from Family Health Center Pueblo Nuevo, Temuco, Chile, based on an ethnographic approach carried out between 2022 and 2023.

En este artículo presento los itinerarios terapéuticos en salud mental de 8 usuarias/os del Programa de Salud Mental del Centro de Salud Familiar Pueblo Nuevo de Temuco, Chile, a partir de un abordaje etnográfico realizado entre el 2022 y 2023. Para tal fin, describo 4 nodos o instancias institucionales de gestión de los malestares en salud mental, en los que se concentran los itinerarios terapéuticos: 1) el sistema público, 2) el Programa de Salud Mental del Centro de Salud Familiar, 3) el sistema privado, y 4) la medicina “new age”. Producto de la tensión entre la institucionalización del tratamiento y abordaje de las aflicciones, y la incertidumbre devenida de la contradicción entre terapias, diagnósticos, las largas listas de espera (sistema público) y la barrera monetaria (sistema privado y medicina “new age”), comprendo que los itinerarios terapéuticos en salud mental conforman experiencias de “liminalidad latente”.
