Bailey, a Senior Therapist at our practice, views counseling as an opportunity to meet individuals where they are at, at any stage of life, on any kind of day. In each meeting with a client, she seeks to create a space for clients to feel safe, seen, heard, and understood.
As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), Bailey is dedicated to helping individuals utilize their strengths, learn new coping skills, and gain resources to grow in peace. Her joy in counseling comes from the privilege she feels in being a part of someone’s healing journey, and in assisting clients bearing large burdens.
Bailey graduated from Liberty University with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She has worked as a mental health professional in a variety of settings including schools as a behavioral interventionist, crisis stabilization, intensive in-home therapy, outpatient counseling, and residential care. Throughout each of these settings, Bailey has found a passion to support families, adults, and adolescents in difficult life transitions such as foster care, adoption, step-down from higher levels of care, and exposure to trauma. In addition to these transitions, Bailey has worked extensively with individuals struggling with parent-teen relationship strain, faith-based concerns, as well as the mental health needs that come along with adverse life experiences such as suicidal thinking, self-harm, abuse, grief, anxiety and depression.
Utilizing elements of trauma-informed care and attachment-based therapy, Bailey has developed a therapeutic approach focused on the client’s strengths and felt-safety in the therapy process. She utilizes modalities such as Trauma-Focused CBT, dyadic developmental psychotherapy, EMDR, developmental psychotherapy, sand tray therapy, art-based therapy, family systems therapy, and polyvagal theory. Bailey is enthusiastic about cultivating a positive, encouraging environment for individuals in any walk of life so that healing can occur in a space where clients come knowing what to expect, feeling understood, and being sure they are met with grace no matter what.
