We present the intervention of the extension project "Gestalt-Therapy, listening and psychological reception of groups", conducted since 2018 by black extension students of the Psychology Course of the Federal University of Espírito Santo using the Gestaltic approach. The objective is to develop the practice of psychological group reception for black men and women, mainly university students. To this end, 07 meetings were held in 2018 (04 participants) and 15 meetings in 2019 (07 participants), 04 women and 07 men, aged 19 to 45 years old. The meetings took place at the Center for Applied Psychology at night time. The main therapeutic resources came from verbal and body expression, however, songs, experiences and collage activities were added. The partial results indicated that the group meetings provided care and recognition of self, of the world and the other, it also improved self-esteem in the assisted population. The participants recognized many processes that interrupt affective exchanges as a result of the structural racism that the black Brazilian population experiences. Body and affective awareness made it possible to re-approach positive affections among black people in order to reaffirm the positive characteristics of this population.

Palabras clave : racism; black youth; self-esteem; self-image.
