A Midwesterner at heart, I completed my undergraduate degree at The Ohio State University, then went on to complete my medical degree at the Kentucky College of Osteopathic Medicine before finishing my residency at Loyola University Medical Center where a sizable portion of training was spent at the Edward Hines VA Hospital. During my residency, I cultivated a deep understanding of psychiatric nuances and treatment modalities.

Additionally, I am trained in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), further expanding my repertoire of therapeutic interventions. My memberships include the American Psychiatric Association, American Osteopathic Association, and the Illinois Psychiatric Society.
Throughout my career, I have traversed differing landscapes from rural to urban, gaining a myriad of experiences that helped shape my comprehensive approach to mental health. It is important to me to stay on top of the latest advancements in psychiatry and use evidence- based medicine to offer my patients pertinent, personalized care for them. I am enthusiastic about working with a range of populations. Areas of interest include mood and anxiety disorders, PTSD/complex trauma, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and substance use.
My therapeutic style is characterized by empathy, active listening, and collaborative relationships with patients, fostering a safe space for healing. I offer a combination of medication management and psychotherapy. As a clinician, I aim to empower my patients and help them achieve resilience to navigate life’s challenges. My practice is founded on compassion, respect, and the firm belief an individual has inherent potential for transformative growth.
I am Doris, a board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I completed my Master of Science in Nursing degree at Walden University in Minneapolis, MN. I have worked in the mental health field for the past 13 years in outpatient, inpatient, and residential settings. I am committed to providing holistic and culturally competent individualized care that embodies the client's developmental and bio-psycho-social histories in my treatment approach. I have experience working with individuals ages 5 to 65 and older adults struggling with depression and mood disorders, anxiety disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism and ADHD, eating disorders, trauma, behavior problems, and other co-occurring mental disorders. Owing to the abstract nature and presentation of mental health conditions, I believe the patient is integral to a successful treatment outcome and employ the patient-centered model in my evaluation and treatment recommendations.
Debora Ellis is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who treats a broad range of mental illnesses in patients of all ages. Her areas of interest include personality disorders, PTSD, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, eating disorders, and addictions.
Dr. Ellis’ philosophy of patient care is based on establishing a collaborative, therapeutic relationship with the patient that is founded on effective communication and honesty. “I believe the roots of a patient’s current symptoms are often found in the past. In order to access the past you have to develop an honest and trusting therapeutic relationship with the patient in the present moment,” she says. “It is important, as a provider, to employ empathic listening and to involve the patient in decisions regarding their care.”
Dr. Ellis completed her Doctorate of Nursing Practice, Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degree at Rush University in Chicago.
I have worked in mental health for over 20 years. I am board certified in General Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I have an extensive history of providing mental health services in all levels of care, including inpatient treatment, residential care, intensive outpatient services, community-based treatment, forensic cases and private practice. I find that psychotherapy and psychotropic medication management can be combined to provide effective support, relief and recovery. I have experience treating attention deficit disorders, autism, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, school phobia, and specializes in the treatment of PTSD and eating disorders. I believe in a holistic approach that combines appropriate therapeutic modalities treating individuals, families, and groups; and, where indicated, effective medication strategies.
