This paper presents a critical analysis of the development of the professional field of Psychology in Brazil and of the training of its professionals, at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Some previous studies are used for describing that field and this training. They have been taken in to account, in order to provide a post facto characterization. This essay finishes providing contributions for training and professional policies that may serve the Country's major and urgent social and educational demands.
