ABSTRACT
The purpose of this article is to report a practical experience in School Psychology at a public school in the city of João Pessoa. It is anchored in the assumptions of Vigotski’s Historical-Cultural approach, considering the psychologist as a mediator of relationships and knowledge. In a perspective of preventive and institutional action, the intervention was carried out by Psychology professionals together with teachers, tutors, and school teachers, and the focus was sex education, aiming to give them other possibilities on the theme in order to enable an adequate approach to the demands of the students. Experience has shown that training with school professionals has the potential to promote new reflections and possibilities for action in the classroom. In addition, it corroborated the perspective of the role of the psychology professional as a mediator of reflections, training processes, and changes in methodologies, even though there are obstacles and difficulties in this process.
