If you're an adolescent or adult carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or the kind of exhaustion that comes from navigating life on your own for too long, therapy with me is meant to feel calm, unhurried, and genuinely supportive. I work with teens and adults facing relationship struggles, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and stress that's hard to shake. I also support parents of children and young adults with ADHD or autism-related needs, and I have experience working with individuals and families facing complex mental health and substance use challenges. My background spans community mental health, crisis stabilization, outpatient care, and hospital settings, so I've sat with a wide range of what people go through.

Dustin R. Kebre; M.A; LMFT; MT3057 My current focus lies in the private practice setting, where I take a special interest in treating trauma, anxiety & depressive disorders in adults. I take a Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) approach, which allows for long-term benefits in fewer sessions than other counseling models. I was intensively trained in EMDR 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 use a combination of reflective listening, as well as an instructional approach, to help guide you towards becoming the best version of you!

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 am a graduate of Pepperdine University, I am proficient in treating minor to severe mental health issues and disorders. I have extensive experience working with dual diagnosis and addiction. I am competent in healing people with minor to severe mental health issues including trauma and personality disorders. I specialize in treating individuals, couples and families from a family system perspective, as well using multiple evidence based modalities in a integrative approach.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 4 years of experience, I support adults through some of life's most challenging and transformative moments. My background in hospice and end-of-life care has given me the privilege of walking alongside individuals and families facing grief, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and major life transitions. These experiences have reinforced my belief that while we cannot change the past, we can change how we understand it, respond to it, and move forward.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based. I believe therapy isn't about fixing who you are—it's about helping you recognize your strengths, gain new perspectives, and create meaningful change. Together, we'll build practical tools that help you navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, resilience, and hope.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship challenges, stress, caregiver concerns, chronic health conditions, and life transitions. I integrate evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Motivational Interviewing, and strengths-based interventions, tailoring therapy to your unique needs and goals.

My philosophy is simple: your past explains you, but it does not define you. Healing begins by acknowledging your story, recognizing the strengths you already possess, and believing that meaningful change is possible. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you create a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and fulfilling.

Therapy with me is very human and genuine. I don’t just focus on what’s painful or stuck but help to highlight the ways in which my clients overcome life's punches. While I take this work seriously, I believe laughter can be healing and disarming in therapy.

I earned my Master’s degree in Counselor Education from Florida International University and have worked in a variety of settings, including the foster care system, residential treatment, and community mental health. My background includes supporting individuals navigating trauma, persistent mental health conditions, substance use, eating disorders, and major life transitions. I’ve also worked with veterans, individuals who are unhoused, and LGBTQIA2S+ clients.

In my practice, I work with clients experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, trauma, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I also support clients with PTSD, some OCD presentations, and concerns related to gender, sexuality, and queer identity. My work is trauma-informed, affirming, and rooted in helping clients feel both emotionally safe and genuinely understood.

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I’m Alan Romano, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over a decade of experience helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I believe that many of the struggles we experience are understandable responses to life experiences rather than signs that something is inherently wrong with us.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University and later completed training in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), mindfulness-based practices, psychodynamic principles, and attachment theory. Rather than following a single model, I tailor therapy to each person's unique needs, experiences, and goals.

In therapy, we'll work together to understand not only what is happening in your life today, but also how your experiences, relationships, and nervous system have shaped the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is to help you build insight, strengthen resilience, and develop practical skills that support meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you're navigating trauma, addiction, grief, burnout, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, I strive to provide a compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported throughout the healing process.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, or struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, substance use concerns, or difficult life transitions. If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, you're not alone.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a compassionate, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Clients often describe me as genuine, easy to talk to, and deeply supportive. Together, we'll identify your strengths, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your values and goals.
