About Kelsey
Kelsey Giddings is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. Kelsey focuses on practical conversation and goal-setting to help clients move forward.
Kelsey uses straightforward talk to identify what is most pressing. She listens to how life pressures show up day to day and helps people name small changes they can try. Sessions typically include exercises drawn from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused work to shift thinking and behavior.
She also draws on client-centered and mindfulness approaches to slow down intense feelings and increase awareness of thoughts and bodily reactions. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when people feel stuck and want clearer reasons to change. These methods are presented in plain language and with concrete steps.
People often come to Kelsey for help with relationship strains, family disagreements, or the self-doubt that shows up during major life transitions. She helps break large problems into manageable parts and sets short-term goals clients can test between sessions.
Kelsey asks for honesty about what is and isn’t working and adjusts the plan as needed. Her focus is on practical progress rather than lengthy theory. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says. It helps people feel understood and clarifies values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills so strong emotions feel less overwhelming and clearer choices become possible.Choosing the right approach is a team decision. Kelsey will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they pick one or two methods to try and adjust them over time based on results and feedback.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit a session around work or school, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when days are busy. If you need to fit therapy into a tight schedule, mention that on the matching questionnaire so options can be discussed when you schedule your first appointment.
