Getting to know Dasheara Duck
Hi,
My name is Dasheara Duck, and I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I began my career as an assertive community health nurse working in Baltimore City and surrounding areas to bring awareness to mental health in the community. In 2016, I transitioned into the hospital setting, where I specialized as a crisis stabilization nurse in the emergency room and as an inpatient psychiatric nurse. Here is where my passion for mental health grew stronger as I began taking on more of a leadership role in my facility. In 2019, I decided to further my career by earning my Master's in Nursing from Walden University and becoming a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Since then, I have obtained my license and begun building my own practice.
My overall goal is to break the stigma surrounding mental health. I help high-performance individuals identify and manage anxiety and depressive symptoms. No more hiding! No more being afraid or ashamed of those aching feelings inside. Many individuals' lives changed forever after COVID-19, and many continue to seek normalcy years later. I am here to tell you that it is perfectly okay not to be okay. Many of us require assistance adjusting to our "new" normal. It's time to regain ourselves and strengthen our mental health to break the stigma.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The initial visit is usually the longest. We will spend some time getting to know each other to break the ice. Then we will complete your evaluation and discuss the symptoms that encouraged you to seek treatment. From that discussion we will determine a diagnosis and discuss treatment options specifically designed to fit your needs. You will leave the session excited for what's to come and ready to make the necessary changed to improve mental health.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
