About Kacey
Kacey Ardoin Billiot is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of practice experience. She is based in Louisiana and helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, addiction, parenting strain, and anger. Kacey also supports those facing issues like low self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She uses straightforward, person-centered work that focuses on what the client wants to change. Sessions often include goal-focused problem solving and practical skills to reduce distress. Kacey draws on cognitive behavioral tools to notice unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-based ideas to reduce struggling with difficult feelings.
Her background includes individual and group work across multiple settings. She has experience with substance use recovery and suicide loss survivors and continues to integrate those experiences into clinical work. Kacey emphasizes listening first, then helping people pick small, manageable steps toward change.
In practice she may use motivational interviewing for people who feel unsure about change, and problem-solving techniques when a concrete plan is needed. She also uses attachment-informed approaches for relationship and intimacy concerns, and DBT skills when emotion regulation is a focus.
People meet with her to talk through immediate problems and to build skills for long-term coping. She encourages practical experiments between sessions and regular check-ins on progress. Those seeking help with anger can expect direct, practical conversation about patterns and skills to reduce harmful reactivity.
Approaches used in online sessions
Kacey commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered methods in her work. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it can be useful for anxiety, anger, and low mood. Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationship patterns affect current conflicts and intimacy struggles. Client-centered approaches focus on listening and building a respectful working relationship so the client sets the pace.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the therapy process. Kacey works collaboratively to identify what fits a person’s goals and preferences, adjusting methods as needed. That may mean practicing CBT-style skills one week and using acceptance or attachment ideas the next.
