I specialize in treating anxiety and stress in ‘normal’ people like yourself. My clients appear stable and successful, but quickly express they’re struggling - overwhelmed with frustration - even sadness. They tell me life seems persistently harder than a while ago, stuck in seemingly inescapable patterns with difficult problems.

I engage carefully to what is happening and we will cooperate on a response. My non-judgmental approach balances the need to validate your experiences with the urgency to address and resolve your challenges. I will help you create the fulfilment you envision.

Hi! I'm Bailey, and I provide therapy to residents of the state of Maryland - I'm glad you're here. Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you're carrying a lot or facing one of life's most difficult seasons. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and genuinely heard—a place where you don't have to navigate things alone. I specialize in supporting individuals and caregivers facing serious medical challenges, including those exploring or receiving palliative care or hospice/other end-of-life services. I have extensive experience helping patients and their loved ones navigate anticipatory grief, caregiver fatigue, difficult or complex medical decisions, and the emotional impact of serious illness. I am also a certified brain injury specialist (CBIS). This means I often work closely with caregivers of individuals affected by traumatic brain injuries (TBI), acquired brain injuries (ABI), and all types of strokes. Whether you're adjusting to a new diagnosis, learning to navigate long-term changes, or simply feeling the weight of caring for someone you love, therapy can offer a space to process, recharge, and find support. In addition, I have experience working with medical trauma and post-traumatic stress related to healthcare experiences, particularly following critical illness or intensive care stays. Medical events can leave lasting emotional wounds, and healing isn't just about recovering physically. Together, we can process those experiences at a pace that feels right for you. Grief is another area that I'm deeply passionate about. While many people associate grief with the death of a loved one, I recognize that, that "one" may not be a person. Grief can follow the loss of a person, a beloved pet, changes in health or identity, the end of a relationship, infertility, major life transitions, or the loss of the future you imagined differently. Whatever your grief looks like, it deserves space, compassion, and support. I believe therapy should be what *you* need it to be. For some people, that means having a safe, nonjudgmental space to vent, process emotions, and simply be heard. For others, it means taking a more structured, solution-focused approach with clear goals, practical tools, and strategies to create meaningful change. Most people find themselves needing a combination of both at different points in their journey—and that's okay. My approach is collaborative, flexible, and rooted in building an open, honest therapeutic relationship. I often describe my style as having an "open door" philosophy because our sessions are your time. Together, we'll decide what feels most helpful each session, and I'll meet you where you are rather than expecting you to fit into a particular model of therapy. I do want to note that as a straight, white therapist, I recognize that I do not share every lived experience of the clients I work with. However, I am committed to providing a safe, affirming, and culturally responsive space for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals where you are treated with respect, compassion, and without judgment. My goal is to continue learning, listening, and showing up as an ally so you can feel supported as your authentic self. I believe therapy should meet you where you are. Whether you're navigating loss, caregiving, trauma, major life changes, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out. It would be an honor to walk alongside you as you navigate life's challenges while also celebrating your resilience, healing, and growth.
