Dustin Kebre

Dustin Kebre

Therapist

Virtual • Boca Raton, FL


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.
