The investigations realized on history of the psychology in Chile have been characterized for being general histories inscribed in a logic with pretensions of universality. From this point, and with the intention of mobilizing the visibility of the history of the discipline to local spaces, the present investigation aims to describe the biographical paths of psychologists, contributing elements from a descriptive qualitative perspective of character with biographical orien-tation. A study of case is exposed in a city of the south of Chile, using oral sources collected through in-depth inter-views. The main results are exposed around the categories of training, theoretical ascription and professional prac-tice of the interviewees. It is concluded that the biographical trajectories of psychologists articulate practices of the institutionalization of the discipline in the city.
