Psicologia no Esporte

Psicologia no Esporte is a sports psychology practice led by Rodrigo Scialfa Falcão, a psychologist who supports athletes, coaches, and teams in developing the mental skills that contribute to performance. Based in São Paulo, the practice combines sports psychology with Rodrigo’s background in clinical psychology, behavioral and cognitive therapy, and conflict resolution through sport. His experience includes work with SESI-SP teams and athletes in water polo, men’s volleyball, and Paralympic sports, as well as previous roles in basketball and community rugby. He also consults with professional and amateur participants across sports including football, futsal, rugby, basketball, tennis, martial arts, swimming, and triathlon.

Services include individual sports psychology consultations, tailored mental preparation, and ongoing support for teams. The work addresses focus, concentration, competitive pressure, anxiety, confidence, resilience, motivation, leadership, and communication. A typical process begins with an assessment, followed by strategic sessions, practical exercises for training and competition, and adjustments based on progress and sporting demands. The practice emphasizes confidentiality, professional ethics, and plans designed to fit each client’s routine.
