Krystle DuPree, LMSW

Krystle DuPree is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on issues such as addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and LGBT concerns. She has worked in settings that include justice-involved populations and incarcerated women, and she brings practical support to those dealing with co-occurring disorders.

Krystle helps people talk through substance use challenges alongside mental health concerns. She uses clear, direct conversation to help clients notice patterns that keep them stuck. Her work includes the everyday tasks of coping skills, managing strong emotions, and reducing shame or isolation.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, among other methods. She often blends these approaches to match what a person needs in the moment. Sessions typically focus on identifying values, changing unhelpful thinking, and building small habits that make life easier.

Krystle also offers support around sex culture topics like BDSM and kink, non-monogamous relationships, and body image concerns. She addresses guilt, shame, financial stress, and the fallout from prejudice and discrimination. Her background with justice-involved clients informs a pragmatic focus on real-world challenges.

People who come to Krystle can expect straightforward conversation and concrete steps to try between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting through the site. She conducts sessions in English and does not currently work with international clients.
