About Kettia

Kettia Duperval is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida who brings 13 years of experience to her practice. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and family conflict. Kettia aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion as they take the first steps toward change.

Her sessions focus on practical, individualized care. She listens to what matters most and tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs. That means working at a pace the client can manage and choosing techniques that match their goals.

Kettia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address concerns like panic, grief, addictions, and sleep struggles. She also supports people coping with life changes, caregiver stress, ADHD, and issues related to relationships and intimacy. Her approach centers on clear, direct guidance and steady emotional support.

People can expect straightforward talk about problems and doable steps to try between meetings. Kettia emphasizes skills that help manage strong emotions, improve communication, and build healthier routines. She also works with practical topics like career stress, parenting challenges, and sleep and rest difficulties.

Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole. She practices with an attitude of collaboration, helping people set realistic goals and adjust plans as progress is made. Kettia’s focus is on helping clients move toward more manageable days and better rest.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Two common approaches Kettia uses are skills-based therapies that teach coping strategies and trauma-informed methods that focus on safety and paced healing. Skills-based work breaks problems into smaller steps and teaches practical tools for anxiety, panic, sleep disruption, and anger. Trauma-informed methods center on stabilizing reactions, building emotional regulation, and slowing the process so people feel able to proceed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kettia partners with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, history, and comfort level. She adjusts methods over time so sessions fit what’s actually helping rather than following a fixed plan.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into busy schedules, fewer travel commitments, and the ability to continue care from different locations. This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Licensed professionals can often use online meetings to deliver the same skill practice and conversational work as in-person therapy, which makes it simpler to keep progress between appointments.
