Doris Angelica Martínez
Graduate Student Intern
“Stop being afraid of what can go wrong and start being positive about what can go right”
My objective is to assist individuals in discovering their sense of purpose and identifying what truly inspires them. I was born and raised in Ponce, Puerto Rico and currently my residence in Sun City Center, Florida.I am an Army veteran and my role as a Transportation Management Coordinator provided me with firsthand experience with the deployment process. I gained insights into the emotional toll and stress that deployment stages can have on both the soldier and their loved ones.
After my military service experience, I decided to pursue a career that would establish meaning in my life. I have always enjoyed helping others and wanted to pursue a career that focused on meaningful human connection. Currently I’m a Graduate Student Intern here at Kaafi Counseling and my goal is to be able to work with others to overcome any obstacle that they may encounter in their life, help to achieve their goals and work through challenges in productive ways.
I believe that everyone deserves to have a good quality of life and to have their fundamental human needs met. Let me guide you to achieve positive changes that could provide you better mental health and quality of life! Hablo español. Permíteme ayudarte a lograr un cambio positivo con el fin de obtener una mejor calidad de vida para ti y los tuyos!
I am proficient in both Spanish and English, reflecting my bilingual background. My family and I hold deep respect for our soldiers and veterans, with my husband being a veteran and my son currently serving in the Army.
