About Doris

Hello! I'm a dedicated healthcare professional with a rich background in nursing, nutrition, and patient care. My journey began as a Pharmacy Technician and Instructor, where I developed a passion for helping patients understand their medications and nutritional needs. Over time, I transitioned into nursing, where I worked in various settings such as critical care, psych unit, rehabilitation, and urgent care. I've always prioritized personalized care, taking into account each patient's unique background and health requirements. My experience includes everything from administering medications and developing specific care plans to educating patients on managing conditions like HTN, diabetes. I have a strong commitment to continuous learning and have participated in numerous training sessions and workshops to stay updated with the best practices in healthcare. Whether it's providing bedside care, conducting patient education, or supporting fellow nurses, my goal is always to ensure the best possible outcomes for my patients. Outside of work, I enjoy engaging in community activities and staying physically active. I look forward to supporting your health and well-being with personalized and compassionate care. *Specialties •Mental Health *Conditions treated •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •ADHD •PTSD •Eating disorders •Addiction •Insomnia •Relationship issues •Mood disorders •Panic attacks •Trauma •Family counseling •Learning disabilities •OCD •Family Issues •Stress •Anger Management •Cultural & Ethnic Issues •Grief •Loss •Maternal Mental Health *Treatment philosophy My approach to care is about forming a meaningful partnership with my patients, where they feel supported, informed, and confident in their health journey.

What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?

People considering working with me should know that I’m deeply committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space. I believe in collaboration, where each client feels heard and respected. My approach is compassionate, tailored, and focused on empowering you to reach your personal goals.

How do you work with clients with anxiety?

When working with clients facing anxiety, I provide a calming, supportive space to explore triggers and understand underlying patterns. Using CBT, mindfulness, and exposure techniques, we work together to build effective coping strategies, reduce anxious thoughts, and foster a greater sense of control and calm.

How do you work with clients with depression?

With clients experiencing depression, I focus on creating a compassionate, supportive environment to explore and understand their emotions. Using approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and interpersonal therapy, we work together to identify patterns, build resilience, and develop practical strategies to improve mood and quality of life.

How can you provide care remotely?

I offer remote care through secure video sessions, allowing you to receive support from the comfort of your own space. This flexible option makes it easier to access care, with the same level of confidentiality, compassion, and effectiveness as in-person sessions.
