Sports Psychology
Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
Performance can feel inconsistent when pressure, expectations, or overthinking start to interfere. You might notice dips in confidence, difficulty staying focused, or frustration when you’re not performing at your usual level.
Our work focuses on strengthening your mental approach so you can perform more consistently. You’ll learn how to manage pressure, stay present, and respond more effectively during competition and training.
The goal is to help you trust your preparation, stay composed under pressure, and perform in a way that reflects your actual ability.

Winston-Salem is home to Wake Forest University School of Medicine and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist — one of the most significant academic medical centers in the Southeast — and this concentration of medical training and research deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of its mental health clinical community. The city's tobacco heritage — once the home of R.J. Reynolds — has given way to a growing medical, technology, and arts economy, and therapists frequently work with the identity transitions of a workforce navigating this shift. The city has a large Black community with deep historical roots in the Piedmont Triad, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and intergenerational resilience are well represented. Winston-Salem's arts and innovation culture supports strong demand for therapists experienced with creative identity and career-related stress.
