Being the curricular internship mandatory and fundamental for professional training, enabling this practical experience, which was developed with companions and children from the Support Center for Children with Cancer - NACC in Porto Velho - RO and with elderly people at Lar Espírita da Terceira André Luiz age in Porto Velho - RO. We had the opportunity to highlight different and challenging realities, together with parents who face the uncertainty of cancer affecting their children every day and how these children, due to the treatment routine, have their leisure time interrupted. And the experience at the Home for the Elderly, who feel welcomed by the interventions and attention given to them. Thus, interventions were carried out in both institutions, through group therapy, which allowed participants to express their feelings and emotions, bringing a positive and non-judgmental look inside themselves, reflections, as well as moments of relaxation and good times. memories, through the therapeutic group the importance of the psychology professional within the health context was clear, providing more sensitive, empathetic communication to understand the individual in an emotionally complex moment. The objective of this internship work in Health Psychology was to integrate academics into the practice of psychology in the health sector, providing opportunities for the development of skills necessary for the development of pre-professional practice, being a fundamental stage in the academic's training, allowing the application practice of learned concepts.
