RESUMEN
Various studies describe the Singular Therapeutic Project (STP) as a powerful instrument of care for the users of specialized mental health services. It is also put forward as a tool to organize and support the activities of the Family Health Support Centers (FHSC), based on the concepts of co-responsibility and comprehensive care. The article seeks to analyze the development of STP by mental health teams of FHSC and its articulations with services of Primary Health Care (PHC), psychosocial services and other sectors of society. It involved qualitative research performed in Guarulhos in the state of São Paulo in 2012 by systematic observation and conducting semi-structured interviews with mental health professionals from support centers. The content analysis method was employed for interpretation of the findings. The STP in FHSC faces obstacles related to lack of definition of work object (attention or management?), precarious working conditions and overlapping functions. It is necessary to analyze the technological feasibility of the STP based on the peculiarities of PHC, avoiding straightforward transposition of technological tools among the different services that comprise the psychosocial care network.

Diversos estudos descrevem o Projeto Terapêutico Singular (PTS) como um instrumento potente de cuidado aos usuários de serviços especializados de saúde mental. Ele também é proposto como ferramenta de organização e sustentação das atividades do Núcleo de Apoio à Saúde da Família (NASF), baseadas nos conceitos de corresponsabilização e gestão integrada do cuidado. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a elaboração de PTS pelas equipes de saúde mental dos NASF e suas articulações com serviços da Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), da Atenção Psicossocial e com outros setores da sociedade. A pesquisa, do tipo qualitativa, foi conduzida no município de Guarulhos (SP), em 2012, mediante realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas, com profissionais de saúde mental de núcleos de apoio e observação sistemática. O método empregado na interpretação foi análise de conteúdo. O PTS nos NASF esbarra em obstáculos relacionados à indefinição de objeto de trabalho (atenção ou gestão?), à precariedade das condições de trabalho e sobreposição de funções em torno desse dispositivo. É necessário analisar a viabilidade tecnológica do PTS a partir das peculiaridades da APS, evitando a mera transposição de ferramentas tecnológicas entre diferentes serviços da rede de atenção psicossocial.
