Objective: To report the practice of a therapeutic group in a Psychosocial Care Center (CAPS Geral), with family members/caregivers of patients suffering from mental disorders. Methods: This is a descriptive study, in the form of an experience report, developed by a resident nurse, conducted in the municipality of Camocim–CE, between August 2023 and March 2024. Through the analysis of the content of the field diary of the Laços Group, it was possible to assess the main themes that emerged from the group. Results: After analyzing the material recorded in the field diary, the most prevalent topics during the group meetings were identified, namely: overload; crises; communication difficulties; fragility in support networks; and the importance of psychosocial support for family members/caregivers. Conclusion: The study highlights the importance and impact of therapeutic groups in assisting families, aiming to encourage actions directed at caregivers.
