Abstract This study aims to identify evidence of work overload and coping practices adopted by psychologists of a non-governmental CAPS in Minas Gerais. Data were collected in the first half of 2017, using semi-structured interviews and analyzed by thematic content analysis. Participants were eight psychologists. Two thematic axes were constructed: "Health-work-disease relationship" and "Coping strategies". It was observed that the professionals recognized the wear generated by work, feeling more intensely the mental exhaustion, but they had strategies for dealing with labor demands. It has been concluded that despite using strategies focused on the problem and emotion, the ones focused on the problem were better perceived by the psychologists.
