About Kelly Walsh, MS, LPC
My name is Kelly (she/her) and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor currently residing in New Orleans. I grew up as the youngest daughter in a military family so packing, unpacking, and packing again is something I am familiar with. I credit this experience as a younger person with my love for travel, exploring, and learning. I have been in practice since 2019 when I graduated from Loyola University - New Orleans with a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health. My counseling career has spanned both the not-for-profit field and a group private practice setting, affording me the opportunity to continuously pursue my passion for helping others. My prior work history also includes several years at an institute of higher learning as part of the accessibility office: a very particular moment in time in which I was inspired by the students around me, and my eyes were opened to the world of neurodivergence and mental health.
Specialties and Interests
I have pointed experience working alongside those navigating more difficult, transitional phases of their lives. My expertise includes facilitating individual and couples sessions that address a range of issues, such as grief, loss, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, family conflict, recovery from substance abuse, and relationship issues.
I have experience working with diverse populations, including teens and their families, adults, and older adults. I am skilled in adapting my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.
