About Kelsey

Kelsey Giddings is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, as well as self-esteem and depression. Kelsey describes her work as creating a space where people can speak about thoughts and feelings without judgment.

She uses clear, practical conversation to help people sort through what feels most urgent. Sessions often involve identifying small, doable steps that reduce stress and improve day-to-day functioning. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on Mindfulness Therapy to develop simple attention and breathing practices.

Kelsey also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation grounded in each person's priorities. Motivational Interviewing techniques may appear when someone wants help finding reasons and motivation to change. Solution-Focused ideas guide short-term planning and tangible goals.

People come to Kelsey for help with family problems, blended household challenges, divorce and separation, and communication problems. She also works with concerns such as guilt, shame, isolation, and life purpose. Kelsey aims to keep sessions straightforward and practical so progress feels visible.

Sessions are conducted in English. Her practice notes that costs vary by location and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and perspectives. The therapist listens without directing the conversation and helps clarify what the client most wants to change. This approach is helpful when someone needs a space to sort emotions and set personal goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Work typically involves identifying patterns of thinking that increase stress or conflict, then practicing alternative responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and relationship-related thinking traps.

Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These techniques are used to manage stress and ground conversations during moments of strong emotion.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust plans based on what actually helps.

Session formats are not specified in the original profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time for those balancing work and family. Licensed professionals can help clients shape a plan that fits everyday life without promising a particular format.
