About Kelly
Kelly Harper is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 22 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, and depression. Kelly draws on practical approaches to help clients make changes that matter in daily life.
She sees people as the experts on their own stories. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and small steps that reduce tension and improve relationships. Kelly listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, and she helps clients try different responses to old triggers.
Her work often includes straightforward skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy techniques to set clear, achievable goals and track progress week to week. These approaches are used to address anger, coping with life changes, and workplace or family stress.
Kelly has helped people with trauma and grief, ADHD-related challenges, self-esteem, and caregiver stress. She also supports clients facing divorce, blended family issues, and the strain of aging and geriatric concerns. Practical problem solving and brief skill-building are central to her method.
Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Clients who want clear steps, homework they can try between meetings, and honest talk about reactions and patterns usually find this approach useful. To begin, she asks clients to identify one small change they want to see and then works from there.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Kelly commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT involves noticing thoughts and behaviors that keep anger or anxiety going, then practicing clearer ways of reacting. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on setting small, concrete goals and tracking progress toward those goals over time.Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That planning can change as progress is made, and clients help decide which tools to keep using.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins during a workday. It can also let people practice skills in the places they live and then discuss what happened at the next meeting.
