This article aims to share the experience of a Psychotherapeutic Group for Women, a group psychotherapy work carried out in a Psychosocial Care Center (CAPS). In reporting the history of the group of women, we intend to address the following themes: the challenges of the clinic in the psychosocial care network and how the group of women faced the failures and became a space for the elaboration of mourning, strengthening of singularities, as well as openness to new life possibilities; thus, reaffirming the potential of the therapeutic groups to support the clinic in public health devices. We realized that the therapeutic potential of the group of women is to provide a place to tell and retell their stories. In this space, they can share identifications and integrate themselves into differences. It allows you to talk about your losses, pains, stigmas and the relationship with failure. The psychotherapeutic process favors processes of elaboration and reframing, making it possible to see and even build a new beginning. It is intended that this reflection will meet other group therapists, in other health services, thus weaving a network of reflections and knowledge about the clinic and the theme of groups and institutions.

Keywords : therapeutic group; women; CAPS.
