ABSTRACT

Introduction: Children encopresis is involuntary defecation of the child, without organic cause that justifies it. It can be caused by physiological incontinence, and appear after the acquisition of sphincter control or being the deliberate deposition of feces in inappropriate places with normal sphincter control. It is a disorder with a psychological impact of particular importance in the life of the child and family.
Objectives: Describe the psychological treatment applied to children with encopresis.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study with a qualitative approach was carried out at "Eduardo Agramonte Piña" Provincial Pediatric Hospital in the city of Camaguey, in the psychology outpatient clinic of the center, in the period from May 2019 to January 2020.
Results: The areas of fundamental conflict for the child with encopresis were the family area, the individua areal and the school area. Divorce mismanaged by parents (38.4%), the demand for affection of the mother figure (30.7%) and difficulties with studies (26.9%) stands out as primary conflicts.
Conclusions: Psychological treatment consists of carrying out therapeutic actions to develop the elimination of feces habit in the child, in interventions with the parents for the adequate treatment of separation, positive communication with the child and promotion of their independence according to the stage of life.
