About Bailey
Bailey Borup is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and concerns related to LGBT identity. She also helps with issues tied to self-esteem and panic symptoms.
Bailey focuses on practical talking and coping skills. She helps clients name feelings like shame, guilt, and abandonment and then try small changes that reduce their intensity. Sessions include practice in communication and steps to handle social anxiety and body image stress.
She works with people dealing with self-harm urges, codependent patterns, and impulsive behaviors. She also supports those recovering from substance use and those affected by domestic violence and other forms of trauma and abuse. Her approach addresses both immediate distress and the patterns that feed it.
Bailey pays attention to sexual identity and the stresses that come with exploring sexuality. She helps people sort through isolation and loneliness and build clearer boundaries and self-respect. She also supports work on forgiveness, guilt, and rebuilding trust in relationships.
Her style is collaborative and person-centered. Sessions focus on practical steps, real-life communication skills, and steady problem solving. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
BHow sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and remote care
Bailey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can apply day to day. One approach emphasizes identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps with panic symptoms, persistent worry, and negative self-beliefs.Another approach focuses on building interpersonal skills and clearer communication. That work helps with codependency patterns, relationship conflict, and learning to set boundaries. Both approaches aim to reduce immediate distress and change wider patterns that keep problems going.
Choosing the right approach is part of the first weeks of work together. Bailey will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their situation, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single model. She checks in about what is and isn’t helpful and adjusts the plan as needed.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking because the practitioner’s biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. These practical benefits are often helpful for people balancing work, family, and health demands.
