Good day to all.
Here is a brief description of my education and experience in the fields of medicine from the University Central Del Este, which I obtain my medical degree, from La Salle University my PhD in Philosophy and Theocentric psychology, Nova Southeastern University a Master in human services, health administration. I am licensed by the Christian Therapist Association, Nationally Certified Psychologist (APA) and by the Florida Certification Board, conducting counseling and psychotherapy in both English and Spanish.   

I am a Board Certified Cognitive-Behavior Analyst from the University of Nova Southeastern University and able to practice at the following States Florida and Texas. My post doctorate in neurology was completed at the University of Barcelona, Spain. With a emphasis in dementia, MS, and autism.

I currently, work at JMH in Ryder ER (P/T) as a emergency physician assistance in the area of neurology and head trauma. Make tentative diagnoses and decisions about management and treatment of patients. Obtain, compile and record patient medical data, including health history, progress notes and results of physical examination. Perform therapeutic procedures, such as injections, immunizations, suturing and wound care, and infection management. Prescribe therapy or medication with physician approval. Visit and observe patients on hospital rounds or house calls, updating charts, ordering therapy, and reporting back to physician. Supervise and coordinate activities of technicians and technical assistants. Provide physicians with assistance during surgery or complicated medical procedures. Order medical and laboratory supplies and equipment

I provide counseling to trauma, abuse, addictions, mood disorders, anxiety, grief/loss, life transition, domestic violence, divorce, and blended family issues. Work with individual, couple, and family formats, age 5 and older as well as adult individuals.

As a transpersonal psychologists work directly with people that might be lost spiritually, or just those that are looking for help finding themselves in order to leave a happier life. These professionals can also help patients change their negative behaviors, improve their relationships, or even just explore their spiritual sides.

Therapy and counseling in transpersonal psychology might involve such things as meditation, dream work, altered states of consciousness, and vision quests. These types of therapies can be used to help patients see themselves not merely as flesh, blood, and bones, but as diving individuals with a heightened sense of the world around them.
Thank you,
Dr. Dulce M. Matamoros Columbie
