DynamiCare Health is a digital therapeutics and coaching company that helps people overcome addiction to drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Centered around motivation and accountability, DynamiCare challenges and empowers individuals to change their lives for the better.
DynamiCare Health was founded in 2016 in Boston, Massachusetts by Eric Gastfriend, Harvard MBA tech executive, and his father, David Gastfriend MD, an international expert in addiction psychiatry. DynamiCare has raised over $6 million in equity funding, $5 million in grants/prizes, and is used by treatment programs, academic research institutions, and health plans across the U.S. DynamiCare's partners include Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey, Vermont Medicaid, ComPsych, Spring Health, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and University of Vermont, among others.
Sister Doris Marie Gonzalez SSJ has been a Recovery Coach/Contingency Management Guide at DynamiCare Health since November 2020. Throughout her time at DynamiCare, she has provided high quality service to her customers through an approach that was both data-informed and patient-focused. Here is what a few of her patients had to say about her:
"I love Doris Marie. She is very kind and sweet but keeps me on my toes!"
"Doris Marie has been very helpful to me. She is the one thing that has been constant throughout my program. After the rewards and modules were over, I could count on her to help me increase my understanding in my recovery".
At each monthly team meeting, a worker receives The Innovator Award. Doris Marie was thrilled to receive that award in January from her supervisor, Chris Taylor.
Doris also shares that she began discerning last Spring about when to retire. Her employment with DynamiCare Health ended on February 16, 2024. She has already begun to “volunteer” at Holy Infancy School in Bethlehem.
Congratulations, Doris Marie, and blessings on all the future holds.
