Abstract

The study is presented in a scenario of therapeutic practices aimed at the youth collective. Objectives: to discuss the foundations of Integral Theory, as a meta-theory applicable to Complementary Therapies (PICS), in order to propose possible ways to build integral therapeutic experiences for young people. Methodological procedures: brief narrative review about its foundations and its elements, also bringing a brief discussion around group psychotherapy and studies that deal with the epidemiological profile of PICS. Results: The contributions of Integral Theory and the PICS make it possible to go through possible paths with young people in the development of levels of consciousness. Thus, we propose the use of the Integral Matrix for the Youth Collective (MICJ) in the process of building experiences in order to better accommodate the complexity of young people's demands, considering the necessary ethical criteria, in order to provide care in Primary Health Care.
