The understanding about group practices with young people and their purpose in Psychology has many standpoints, being expected among other professional skills and abilities. This article attempts to understand, by conducting an integrative literature review, how groups with young people are characterized and constituted by the making of Psychology scientific papers. We searched Scielo, Pepsic and Adolec databases and, through inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 articles were retrieved, which analysis allowed us to point out the groups as a space of: (a) word circulation; (b) exchange and possibility of transformation; (c) therapeutic space. There are still few papers concerning group practice with young people. They stressed as the main group characteristic the fact that it provides a space for speech and exchanges between the inserted subjects. We point out a certain naturalization of the participants of the groups, once their life histories and social conditions ceased to be highlighted.
