About Doris

Doris Dimaya is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Missouri with four years of clinical experience. She sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Doris also lists experience related to aging and geriatric concerns and caregiver stress.

She works collaboratively with people to identify what matters most to them and to build practical coping skills. Sessions focus on clear goals such as managing anxiety symptoms, navigating midlife shifts, or planning for end-of-life caregiving needs. Conversations are straightforward and paced to fit what each person needs that week.

Doris describes using evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, codependency, emptiness, and family of origin issues. That means she chooses approaches shown to help with symptoms and functional problems, then adjusts them to the person’s situation. Expect concrete tools to manage stress and steps to reduce avoidance and social anxiety.

She has specific experience supporting older adults and people dealing with hospice, end-of-life matters, and caregiver burden. Those areas often involve practical problem-solving alongside emotional processing, such as discussing role changes and arranging supports.

Doris offers a collaborative style that centers the client’s goals. Work may include skill practice between sessions and regular check-ins on progress. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule an initial session.

Approach in virtual sessions and evidence-based care

Many of the ways Doris works draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. For example, cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety and depression. Trauma-informed strategies emphasize pacing, stabilization, and grounding skills to reduce distress and support recovery after difficult events. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the person’s goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. Expect adjustments over time as progress and needs change. The practical benefits of online sessions include easier scheduling and fitting therapy into busy days. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or continue care when relocating within the same state. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the available online options before booking to understand how meetings are held and what will fit your routine.
