Zafria Bailey
I utilize a holistic approach to treatment that considers the whole person including spiritual needs, rather than just your mental health. Spiritual focus may be meaning of life and forgiveness. Self-care can look different for everyone, but it should promote health and happiness. Treatment is always determined in collaboration with clients and is focused on enhancing client strengths, finding solutions to challenges, and empowering clients to do what is best for themselves and their families.
First session
In the first session, expect a focused conversation where I will ask you a lot of questions to understand what brought you to therapy, your background, current challenges, and desired goals, essentially getting to know you and assessing if I am a good fit for your needs; this is also a chance for the client to gauge if they feel comfortable with client-therapist relationship and determine if they want to continue therapy with me.
Strengths
As a provider, my greatest strengths include exceptional communication skills, a genuine empathetic approach to patient care, a strong attention to detail, the ability to actively listen and understand patient concerns, and a commitment to staying updated with effective coping strategies; allowing me to build strong relationships with patients and provide high-quality, personalized care.
Ideal clients
Do you struggle with stress, anxiety, self-esteem or self-care? I provide a safe space to process both general mental health issues and culturally specific stressors. I enjoy working with clients 23 and older with years of experience helping clients cope with depression, anxiety, self-care, and self-esteem challenges. Clients who are looking for a mental health professional who can provide culturally competent care tailored to your specific identity and needs.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients change their thoughts and behaviors to manage problems and improve their mood, primarily addressing symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Interpersonal
I utilize Interpersonal therapy to focus on current life events, communication patterns, and social functioning.
Strength-Based
I utilize Strengths Based therapy to address your inherent resilience, values, and coping skills rather than solely fixating on your deficits or mental health symptoms.
