About

Keshia Ginn, LCSW, LISW-CP, ACSW | Certified Clinical Supervisor|  Therapist | Entrepreneur

​

Let’s get acquainted—call me Keshia. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Supervisor with more than 20 years of experience helping individuals and clinicians grow with calm, clarity, and confidence. I hold degrees in Psychology from Winthrop University and Social Work from the University of South Carolina-Columbia, and I’m licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, New York, and Texas. I am also a member of the Academy of Certified Social Workers.

​

Before launching By Design Clinical Coaching & Consulting PLLC full-time in 2024, I served as Head of Clinical Excellence at Resilience Lab, overseeing more than 30 clinical supervisors across five Northeastern states, and as President of CriSyS (The Mecklenburg Mobile Crisis Team). My work spans mental health, trauma, substance use, and clinical leadership, with a heart for mentoring LCSWAs and helping organizations cultivate emotionally healthy teams.

​

In November 2025, I expanded my mission of intentional wellness through By Design Calm Collection—a passion project of calming, therapeutic products designed to help others find stillness and balance beyond the therapy space.

​

Outside of my work, I’m “Auntie Kesh” to two nieces and four nephews, a proud member of NASW-NC and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, and a firm believer in rest, movement, and meaningful connection as keys to a calm life.
