When life gives us the unexpected sometimes, we need support systems that may seem untraditional to some. As, a therapist, I welcome all the doubts that you may have to engage in the therapeutic process. Therapy is a partnership, meaning, I will be there to motivate and challenge you to arrive at the desired outcome. Most of my career has had a focus of working with individuals that suffer from dual diagnosis, trauma, and poor coping skills. Each treatment plan is developed personally for each individual meeting their own personal needs. My primary treatment orientation includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness. My interaction from beginning to end will also include trauma-informed care. My education path is via Lynn University of Boca Raton and Barry University of Miami Shores, Florida. I, thank you, in advance for letting me help you achieve one of your many goals in life, freedom from the bondage that is holding you from your peace!

I am a National Certified Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I was trained in both mental health and marriage & family therapy. Furthermore I completed studies at the Institute of Interpersonal Hypnotherapy and became a transpersonal hypnotherapist. I also completed trauma studies at the well-known Bessel Van der Kolk Trauma Institute. My original background was in international relations, which I studied at the prestigious University of Economics in Prague, Czech Republic. I also received a diploma from the Czech Chamber of Graphology. I believe that my diverse background has given me a broader perspective as a therapist, and as such, I am able to understand and help people with different life experiences. My counseling style is warm and understanding. I meet people where they are currently at. My counseling approach is person-centered and system based. I often use cognitive-behavioral techniques to find problematic behavior and solution-focused techniques to change the problematic behavioral patterns. Of course I apply array of techniques from other fields, e.g. meditation. I am here for you to start the process of healing.

Hello and welcome - I appreciate your visit to my page! I see counseling as a collaboration between client and counselor - clients want to feel their best and function at full potential, and my role is to provide quality, customized care to help them do that. I am a big believer that even small changes can significantly impact internal well-being and external influence. I partner with clients to identify and build on strengths so they can face challenges, create solutions, and feel better. Licensed in Illinois and Connecticut for 20 years, I have worked as counselor, consultant, coach, and advisor in both higher education and private practice. Much of my work has been with clients transitioning from one life phase or role to another. Change can be hard, and people who ask for help as they face it are brave. With an approach specific to each individual, consisting of a personalized set of strategies drawn largely from humanistic, cognitive, acceptance and commitment, and solution focused therapies, I support and encourage clients as they work to adjust to new roles, situations, expectations, and realities and help them cope with the resulting symptoms and feelings. It is a privilege to help clients work through a difficult time as they progress through life’s inevitable changes, and I would be honored to work with you!

Hello! I am April, also known as the Pineapple Lady. From time to time, you may hear me say Make Room for Your Crown. I believe that individuals are all intrinsically creative, and through varying art experiences, one can deepen their understanding of choices, challenges, and capabilities without judgment. I am trained to integrate psychotherapy with art-making and/or evidence-based practices such as (EFT, SFBT, Jungian, & Motivational Interviewing). If words alone cannot fully capture what you are experiencing, I offer art therapy as a tool for greater awareness. Though versed in various therapies, my core practice is rooted in truth-telling, narrative change, racial healing, and transformation. Over the past 7 years, I have been fortunate to build a diverse and adaptable skill set. My most recent work involved helping manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, negative self-image, and substance use. Like the pineapple which has formed a spikey exterior to protect itself, so have we! However, an inner core lies within us all and uniquely centering you, I will remain curious, engaged, and committed to providing a safe experience for you to thrive. Did you know the pineapple was also made up of 200 flowers?! Sometimes we become overwhelmed by our flowering process. In working with me I will use effective and creative strategies to uncover all of your flowers while helping you understand that each season is necessary for us to bloom into our purpose. I am eager to know more about you and remember Make Room for Your Crown. Your written bio should appeal to a potential client. Keep it authentic, warm, and personal. Consider including things like: types of people you find yourself helping most often, your approach to working with clients, educational background, licensure, interests and hobbies.

Dustin R. Kebre; M.A; LMFT; MT 3057 ; I take a special interest in treating trauma, anxiety & depressive disorders in adults. I was intensively trained in and believe the focus of counseling is to not only work on managing your current struggles, but to develop the tools needed to independently manage future obstacles as well.

I have a Master's in Clinical Psychology and a License in Marital and Family Therapy. I treat individuals, couples and families. I specialize in healing people from pain and suffering. I believe the connection you can develop during therapy provides an environment where you can feel safe and nurtured. We all need this kind of support in a world that seems to care less and less about your needs as a human being. The first step is the most difficult; however, often the most life changing. I look forward in helping you transform your life and be the person you were meant to be.

I offer a personalized approach to each client with compassion and empathy. I look forward to help someone grow and overcome, one person at a time. Frustrated of being told to "relax", "calm down", "you are too sensitive", "grow up" & "get over it already, or "you worry to much"? People tell you this as if you do not want to relax, stop overthinking, overreact and worry! If you could, you would! Being told this from friends and loved ones does not help. In fact, it can cause you to feel much worse! You probably have tried to stop on your own, but your mind continues to fill up with thoughts that cause you to become stressed and you struggle to turn your brain off! You are not alone! I get it and can absolutely relate! This why I am so dedicated in helping people find relief! I can help you find your true self. You do not have to feel this way forever. I pride myself on a human and authentic approach. Isn't it time you face making positive changes to start really living again? I want to help you! Let's get started now & do this right!
