Hi, I'm Kelly Render, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about supporting children, adolescents, women, and individuals with disabilities. I earned my Master of Social Work with a Graduate Certificate in Child and Youth Services (2016) and my Bachelor of Science in Psychology (2014) from Louisiana State University.
I specialize in helping clients navigate grief, anxiety, relationship challenges, and major life transitions through a compassionate, strengths-based approach.
I have been practicing since May 2012 and am one of only eight certified Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) specialists in the state of Louisiana. I received my training at a VA hospital, where I worked extensively with veterans, gaining deep experience in trauma-informed care.
Over the course of my career, I have worked across all levels of care, which uniquely equips me to support clients in crisis and navigate difficult, emotionally intense situations during sessions. I am also a certified trauma specialist, and I firmly believe that recovery and renewed hope are possible for every client I serve.
I have an undergraduate and master's degree in social work. I am a licensed clinical social worker who obtained three years postmaster level supervision to obtain my license in order to practice mental health therapy independently. I love working with individuals to help make their lives more satisfying.
