Dr. Doreen is a clinical psychologist licensed in the state of Texas and founder of Healing Haven Psychotherapy PLLC in Austin. She was born and raised in my beloved homeland Ghana, West Africa. Upon moving to the United States, she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology with a minor in Biology and certificate in Developmental Disabilities and Human Services from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. From there, she attended Midwestern University in Arizona where she obtained both my Master of Arts and Doctor of Psychology Degrees in Clinical Psychology. Her education and clinical work have extensively been in medical and community mental health settings and hence she has in-depth understanding of the mind-body relationship and the importance of holistic care. On a personal note, her intersecting identities of being an immigrant and a woman of color also lends itself deeply in the work I do and to the passion she have for supporting BIPOC individuals, underserved populations, and immigrant families. 

In her unwinding time outside of work, she indulge in rom-coms, scenic drives, time in nature/by water with her husband or loved one, grooving to some really good music, and serving in her church choir. She also love to travel for relaxation and exploration.
