More About Bailee
As your therapist, I will bear witness to some of your most vulnerable moments and walk alongside you as you face numerous challenges. Because of the intimacy that is required in this therapeutic relationship, it is vitally important that you feel that I am the right fit for you. My friends describe me as understanding, honest, and kind. In my practice, I incorporate these qualities along with my values of community, authenticity, and safety to allow me to create a safe and supportive environment while also maintaining the integrity of the therapeutic process and ensuring that we are making progress toward your goals — whether they are to step out of your comfort zone and into your confidence, or to process a change that you may be going through. Whatever your goals may be, I hope to foster a space that allows you to open up in ways you may not have opened up before and to be challenged in ways that support you in your process.
Operating within a systemic lens allows me to consider factors beyond who and what is presenting in the room so that I may consider my clients as both autonomous entities and as members of larger systems within society. I’m typically drawn to an Emotion-Focused approach as I believe that improving our emotional awareness plays an impactful role in the therapeutic process. However, I also understand that this may not be the right approach for everyone or for every issue so I am flexible in adapting my approach to best serve the needs of each of my clients. Because of this, I am fortunate to work with a diverse population of clients with a diversity of challenges. Additionally, given my background as a summer camp supervisor, I have specific experience working with children. I have also found myself actively engaged with the current research on eating disorders as I have a background as a personal trainer.
During my time off you can find me heading back to northern California to visit my family, paddle boarding with my dog (Dakota), or painting some landscapes. When the weather is colder I enjoy reading and watching movies.

Why see an Intern?
Feeling the need to see a therapist, but the cost is prohibitive? Do you wish you could see a mental health professional in a comfortable setting? Anchor Light Therapy Collective’s internship program makes mental healthcare more accessible to all members of the community. It also provides mentorship and supervision for the next generation of therapists.
Things to keep in mind when scheduling with interns:
- Scheduling a consultation with one of our interns allows you to have a 20 minute conversation with them to make sure they are a good match, in order to achieve your therapy goals
- Intern therapy sessions are not infinite. These students will complete their internship after 1 year
- Interns are supervised by licensed clinicians. They may consult with these supervisors, who may then review your therapy notes
- Interns cannot bill insurance for therapy sessions. Therefore, if you would like to bill your out-of-network benefits for services please schedule a consultation with our licensed thereapists.
How much does Intern Therapy cost?
Intern Therapy sessions cost $70 and are 50 minutes long.
Individual therapy sessions with a licensed Anchor Light Therapist cost $190 and are 50 minutes long.
