About Kettia

Kettia Duperval is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 13 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related life challenges. Her approach centers on respectful, sensitive care and practical conversation tailored to each person.

She begins by listening to what matters most to the individual. Then she works with them to create a plan that fits their goals and daily life. Sessions are designed to feel collaborative rather than prescriptive, with space to name problems and try manageable steps forward.

Kettia supports a wide range of concerns, including relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, issues with intimacy, addiction, and changes in career or life roles. She also helps people coping with ADHD, bipolar challenges, and compassion fatigue. Additional focuses include adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, and caregiver stress.

Her background includes experience addressing domestic violence, first responder stress, and health-related concerns such as HIV/AIDS. She works with people facing panic attacks, paranoia, eating or sleeping problems, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. The goal is to build clearer coping skills and steadier day-to-day functioning.

Kettia offers sessions in English and Haitian Creole. She tailors the conversation and the plan to each person’s situation, helping them move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

How evidence-based approaches guide online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used in practice include short-term skill building that focuses on managing symptoms like anxiety and panic, and trauma-informed methods that help people process difficult experiences safely. Skill building teaches practical strategies for coping with stress, improving sleep, and managing intense emotions. Trauma-focused approaches help people make sense of painful events and reduce their impact on daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences before choosing methods. This collaborative process means strategies can be adjusted over time if something is not a good fit.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow for more flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. The exact session formats offered should be confirmed before booking, so clients know whether video, phone, or another option is available. Many people find that remote sessions help maintain continuity of care during life transitions and make it simpler to try therapy for the first time.
