About Krystle

Krystle DuPree is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on concerns such as addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and related co-occurring issues. Krystle often addresses LGBTQ matters and supports people dealing with mood disorders and the stress of caregiving work. She works in English and does not take international clients.

Krystle has experience helping people cope with substance use and mental health concerns together. She has worked with incarcerated women and other justice-involved people, and with individuals dealing with depression and the fallout from trauma. In sessions she treats anger as a practical issue - patterns of losing temper, building resentment, and problems that come from unresolved frustration.

Her clinical work uses practical, evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She also draws on attachment-informed ideas and mindfulness practices to address how relationships and moment-to-moment awareness affect emotions. Sessions tend to focus on skills, values-based goals, and small, doable changes.

Krystle approaches work with direct language and straightforward steps. She encourages people to notice what matters to them, try behavior changes, and test new ways of responding when anger or cravings arise. The aim is to reduce harm and increase control over reactions, while addressing related issues like shame, guilt, or isolation.

To begin, interested people use the site's matching process and schedule a first session. Krystle uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location.

How Krystle uses ACT, CBT and mindfulness online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practice actions that align with those values despite difficult feelings. It is often used for anger that gets in the way of relationships or work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and reactions and teaches practical skills to change patterns of behavior and mood. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple awareness skills to notice urges, reduce automatic reactions, and make calmer choices.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Krystle will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. Sessions combine skill practice, values-based goals, and problem solving so the plan can be adjusted over time.

The therapist's session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work or family schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and let people skip travel time. These practical benefits help people try new skills in their real routines and keep momentum between appointments.
