Dr. Derek Sokoloff
Introduction
Many people find their way to this work through performance — struggling with confidence, consistency, or the mental demands of competing and leading at a high level. For others, it is something more personal that brings them here: anxiety, burnout, identity challenges, or the quiet sense that something needs to change. In my experience, these two paths are rarely separate. How we feel shapes how we perform, and how we perform shapes how we feel. The goal of our work together is to address both with the same level of care, intention, and genuine investment. I am a licensed psychologist and the current Assistant Director of Mental Health and Performance at Duke University. I specialize in Sport and Performance Psychology, Leadership Development, and Mental Health, and bring over 15 years of experience working with athletes, coaches, executives, and high performers across disciplines. For a more complete description of my approach, experience, and areas of focus please visit my website (DunthornePsych.com). I look forward to hearing from you.
