More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 10 State: Louisiana

Hi there!

My name is Kacey Ardoin, and I am a clinical social worker licensed in Louisiana, Texas, Arizona, and Utah. I have been practicing in the social work field for about 9 years. I received my Bachelor of Science degree from The University of Georgia, and then went on to pursue my Master of Social Work degree with a clinical concentration. I have worked with clients in multiple settings and have experience with both group and individual therapy. My work has been primarily focused on helping people overcome depression and anxiety, especially as it relates to improving their overall health (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual). One of my greatest passions is suicide prevention, especially working with survivors of suicide loss. I have also worked in addiction and substance abuse recovery, and I greatly enjoyed seeing people reach the other side of their struggles. Other areas that I enjoy working with include relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and grief.

My counseling style is empathetic and person-centered. I believe everyone deserves to be heard and treated with mutual respect. I align with a person-centered, solution-focused therapy model, while also using cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy techniques. I am also certified as a Problem Solving Treatment Practitioner and like to incorporate these principles into sessions when they may be helpful. I especially enjoy working with people who are ambivalent about making a change in their lives, and I enjoy utilizing motivational interviewing techniques when possible. If you are feeling stuck, there is a reason - and I would love to work through that with you!

Whether this is your first time in counseling or your hundredth time, I believe you have the power to break down whatever wall is standing in your way today. It takes strength to reach out for support, and for that, I want to congratulate you on your courage today!

Thank you for your time and I look forward to working together.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Kacey is a great therapist, she's patient, kind, and very knowledgeable about mental health.

Kacey has been an absolute doll to me. She's helped me over come so many things. She's very encouraging to help you get better. She gives you lots of tools to help you cope with whatever might be bothering you. The worksheets she gives is also very helpful.

Kacey is the best therapist I have ever had. I can tell that she truly cares. Even when she has planned time off she still checks in. I will forever recommend BetterHelp specifically due to my experience with Kacey.

Kacey has been amazing! She really listens to you and deeply cares.

Kacey is simply the best! She is so good at listening patiently and then offering advice when it's needed. She is so empathetic, and always helps to validate my feelings, which has made a huge impact on me in a very positive way. I highly recommend her as someone who cares and has the expertise to make a big difference. Thank you, Kacey!

Kacey has always been so kind to me and I love how she holds me accountable to better myself in a healthy way.

Kacey is intelligent and astute. She is helping me work through issues that I've had for a long time. She's emotionally sensitive and very helpful.

She listens to what I say. If she doesn’t understand what I’m trying to say she asks questions to get a further understanding of the situation.

I have only met with Kacey once so far, but it has already been a great experience. She has given me homework to do that helps me reflect, set goals, and identify areas in my life that might need some work. I'm already learning how to better take care of myself thanks to her insightful questions. I look forward to learning more!

I don't even know where to start and/or what really to say. Kacey has been the only therapist (trust me, there's been many), whom after speaking with for the first time, that I felt could and would truly help me. She understood that the trauma is what it is and the part of discussing it was somewhat resolved but rather it was time to get crack'n on some healing action. She offered ways to move forward and heal. I am truly thankful to have found her. And, she's persistent in a kind and respectful way when I avoid bc I don't want to deal. She checks in, sends assignments. and is beyond supportive. I highly recommend Kacey; thanks so much Kacey and BetterHelp!

Kacey has been a huge support to me. She is so personable, easy to talk to, and very caring. It feels very easy to connect with her and I really feel like I have a safe place to share my thoughts and feelings.

Best therapist I've had

Kacey is very helpful, compassionate, and always available. I appreciate her warm and open manner and supportive nature.

She's very sweet and understanding

I love Kacey! I have spent a few years trying to find the right therapist for me (online & in person) and none of them were like Kacey :) she's the best- she listens without judgment, she gives great advice, she's everything I need!

Kacey is very good at what she does. She will help get you back on track.

I feel that I have made significant progress in my emotional health since I started to work with Kacey Ardoin. She is knowledgeable but also very caring and I feel that I can discuss anything with her.

Kacey is literally the best therapist I have ever worked with! She's a gem for sure!

Kacey is wonderful!

I've only been in therapy for two weeks, and I had the bad fortune of having my own vacation and her vacation happen at just the right point in time that we haven't had a chance to meaningfully interact or do therapy until like... yesterday. This is not her fault in any way, I want to make that clear. In the meantime though, everything she's done has indicated that her compassion and competence as a therapist is not in question.

Kacey has always been a quick reply when I've had to message her. Our sessions are always really good and I usually feel better when I get done with out sessions. She's given me many tools to use to help me get through my anxiety and trauma. She's given me good coping mechanisms to get through some of the more challenging times.

Kacey is the sweetest person I've ever met. She truly helps me understand my thoughts and work towards changing them! She's such a light.

Kacey is wonderful. She has been listening and empathizing while still providing great Socratic questions as guidance so that I can see the issues more clearly. I feel safe to talk about anything.

Kacey has been a wonderful therapist for me, in good times and in bad. She has challenged the way I view myself, encouraged personal growth, and consistently showed compassion during a really hard time. I have always felt validated, seen, and understood, without feeling like I had to work really hard to explain, and without being made to feel small or silly. I could not have asked for a better therapist, and I can't say enough about how much she has done for me!

LOVE HER

Kacey is amazing. She's very kind and makes me feel like I'm really being heard. I had initially left BetterHelp after my EAP ended. But her style, along with the setup of BetterHelp (being able to do chat and video calls) made me want to come back! Kacey is the best therapist I've worked with, hands-down!

Kacey is great! Very easy to talk to she is professional and compassionate. She’s helped me through so much!

Kacey is a wonderful listener with many excellent theories at her disposal for her patients. She really knows her stuff and I’m very happy so far with her services. Highly recommend!

Kacey is wonderful and I’m so grateful to be working with her!

She is really awesome. She really listens and cares about you. She makes you feel heard.

Kacey is honestly amazing!! She has comforted me and made me really realize my value as a human being! I see kacey as an actual friend, not just my therapist!! I have no fear of judgment or bias from Kacey! She really knows how to make me see things from a different POV!!

When I talk to Kacey, I see and feel sunshine on the other side of the phone line. She has good suggestions, is responsive, respectful and available.

Kacey is more than a counselor! She reaches out to me every week and that matters the most.

Kacey is very easy to talk to. I am so thankful I have been paired with someone who genuinely cares!

Kacey had been a great counselor. She is very easy to talk to and she actually cares about you and what’s going on. She would respond to my messages in a timely manner. Kacey helped me deal with some PTSD and triggering topics that have been going on for a year now and I can now say that with her help I can handle what comes my way through skills she has taught.

She’s awesome! She understands my situation and is so helpful and encouraging! She also gave me the exact exercise tools that I was hoping to get. The home work and journaling also helps me a lot!

I appreciate Kacey very much. She has been so instrumental in helping with my anxiety and related issues. She is so helpful and you can tell she genuinely cares

Kacey Ardoin is exactly the person I needed in therapy. She's supportive, encouraging, and consistent. She very much creates that safe space that's so necessary to the process, and checks in throughout the week, which helps so much. Kacey has made the journey of therapy a good one!

Kacey is one of the most attentive and supportive therapists I've worked with. It is always a little hard trying to find a new therapist that is the best fit for you, and I was very lucky to work with Kacey. She not only pays attention but listens to the real issues, the ones that are often unsaid, left out, overlooked, or undiscovered. She has helped me coax my own answers out into the open and in turn, helped me grow.

I never honestly imagined therapy could not only be affordable but practical at the same time . Kacey understands me and is more then understanding when I’m struggling. She checks in on me when I need it most . I truly Believe Better help has helped me so so much . I’m so thankful for this platform

Dr Kacey is a wonderful Dr and very friendly and gentle spoken through the whole process. It’s a wonderful service and I greatly appreciate her time and respect of all my personal issues.

She has been wonderful

Kacey has helped me navigate what are turning out to be some of the strangest and most difficult times of my life, and I feel more capable as an individual thanks to the other resources she readily provides for me during this journey.

Kacey is so easy to talk to and makes you feel very comfortable. She has helped me develop strategies and methods to handle my anxiety and thoughts and has emphasized getting to the root of what is causing my anxiety and working through those. Working with her has been so helpful to my mental health. I would highly recommend Kacey!

She’s great!

Kacey had such a big heart. You can really tell she has a genuine passion for helping people. She’s been a great support to me.

Kacey is an amazing counselor. She has helped me so much since we started together.

Kacey has had a tremendous positive impact on my life in even just a short period of time. She's helped me work on tools and strategies for dealing with problems that I had never considered or didn't have the ability to make happen on my own. I couldn't review her abilities more highly.

Kacey is awesome. So supportive and SO understanding!

Kacey has been amazing. She responds to my messages and journal entries, keeping in touch with me daily. She listens to my concerns and works to help me through each one. Her ability to stay connected with me, makes me feel like I can rely on her to help me with whatever I need, anytime I need it.

Kacey Ardoin is amazing, thoughtful, and so very caring. She creates an open environment so that our sessions feel like an open dialogue.

Kacey is a wonderful therapist! She has really helped me!

I was very hesitant about using this online platform for therapy, but Kacey has made the experience so comfortable and enjoyable. She is encouraging, understanding, and thought provoking. I would highly recommend her and can’t wait to continue to make progress with her help.

Kacey Ardoin fosters a safe space to be seen, heard and supported. Working with Kacey has allowed me to release my fear of judgement and sift through my troubles with patience and gentleness. All in all, my experience with Kacey has been renewing and affirming.
