I enjoy working with clients through mindfulness, ACT, EFT, CBT, DBT and motivational interviewing.
Are you feeling stuck? Like you want your life to move forward or look a certain way, but you just don’t know how to get there? It’s okay! The feeling of stagnation could be due to lack of motivation, anxiety, depression, grief, loss or low self-esteem. Feeling stuck could also be a result of not understanding your own needs and emotions, or relationship concerns between partners or parents and children. Whatever your concern may be, you will be okay- you just need some guidance! I love connecting with people and facilitating the discovery of healing and empowerment that will lead to living a meaningful life.

I believe that in life we are happiest when we are experiencing growth, but so often the facts of life interfere with our ability to grow. The messages we receive from the world around us, the messages we tell ourselves, depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, and countless other factors can impede our progress and keep us from happiness. In our work together we will build a relationship that can provide the support needed to get through these challenges. We will work together to explore what might be holding you back and identify the steps you can take to best get you where you want to go.

Trauma finds it's way into each of our lives. Whether it's the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, the devastating impact of addiction or the confusing changes in identity; we all find ourselves in situations we never thought would apply to us. It is during these times that a safe place and a clear reflection become invaluable. Having trust in the clinical process takes time; while at the same time confidence can be fostered through authentic connection, a felt sense of empathy, and a true surrender to proven practices. When the right combination is applied, healing is the inevitable result.

I conduct long-term therapy process groups for those who want to work on connecting with their emotions, with other people, and with themselves in meaningful and life changing ways.

I am currently not taking new individual or couples therapy clients, but do have openings for new group therapy clients. I have groups for adults and licensed therapists.

You are writing your life story and no matter the chapter you are in, it is not easy to write. Perhaps you are here due to a very difficult chapter and looking for help in writing it. Often, when one is struggling it is manifested and experienced in relationships. As a species, we interact with others constantly. Depression, anger, anxiety, trauma, family discord and other mental health challenges are likely stopping you from getting the life you would like to have. Through a therapeutic relationship, we can begin to edit and write this chapter of your life the way in which you desire. More specialties listed below.

I believe healing is a process; with each layer you shed through healing, your values will shift and grow. I work with individuals, 8 years old and up are feeling a sense of stuckness but are not sure where it lives. We will take what you already know about yourself, even if it’s just a bit, and dive into where you seek to go. The clients I work with are eager to make shifts in their life, crave feedback and support, while knowing that change can be a slow process. The goal for each person I work with is that you begin to understand the places in your life where you can live more fully.

Hi, I'm Bailley! I absolutely love the therapist/client relationship and believe it's essential for you to find someone you feel comfortable with.

By uncovering these insights, you can develop healthier coping mechanisms and make more informed choices. This can help you handle anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, self-esteem issues, and more.

If boundaries are good for me, why are they so scary? Many of us were never taught how to set healthy boundaries with those around us, let alone know what a boundary even is. This can lead to you feeling pushed around, taken advantage of, or that you’re small, like your voice doesn’t matter. I’m here to tell you that your voice DOES matter, and that you get to make and set the rules of your life. You have the ultimate say, it’s just a matter of learning to trust yourself and being bold about what you want and need.

Motivational Interviewing Therapists
How does motivational interviewing work?
Motivational interviewing aims to uncover a person’s internal motivation to change their life. Toward this end, the therapist listens, empathizes, and collaborates with the client based on their perspective; the therapist doesn’t adhere to a predetermined plan for change or impose their viewpoint on the client. Discovering an individual’s most important reasons for change, and guiding them to achieve those changes, can empower people to shift from ambivalence to action.
Is motivational interviewing evidence-based?
Yes, research shows that motivational interviewing can help treat alcohol and substance use — and in different ways such as reducing drinking, reducing resistance, and increasing the likelihood of staying in treatment. Motivational interviewing has also been shown to help people lose weight, adhere to medication regimens, improve diet for those with Type II diabetes, and improve healthy behaviors in children.
How long does motivational interviewing last?
Motivational interviewing is a short-term therapy that can last just one or two sessions. In some cases, motivational interviewing may be used in conjunction with longer-term therapies, but for most people, motivational interviewing is a brief intervention that aims to help patients understand their personal, specific, and internal reasons for changing their life.
What differentiates motivational interviewing from person-centered therapy?
In person-centered therapy, the individual is in the driver’s seat of the treatment process, creating space for them to trust their instincts and arrive at their own solutions. The two approaches are similar because motivational interviewing is also client-centered; however, person-centered therapy is more open-ended while motivational interviewing is somewhat more structured; the goal is to change, and the therapist helps the client specifically discover their internal motivations to modify their behavior.
