My name is Jennifer Bailey, I am a licensed clinical social worker and registered drama therapist. I support my clients in their desire to identify and achieve goals that allow them to live a life that brings them pride and contentment. Now you may be thinking “What in the world is Registered Drama Therapist (RDT)”? An RDT is a clinician that uses components of theater and drama to assist in making therapeutic changes. What this means is you have a choice. You could come to session and talk through what’s been going on with you, the emotions you are feeling or the goals you want to accomplish. Or you could come to session and create some art, express yourself through written word, enact the scenario where you said that thing you should have said in that one conversation that is replaying in your head. You could role play saying that comment that you thought of after the fact. Traditional psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy, is a brilliant way to gain understanding and accomplish your goals. However, there are times that maybe, talking it through just isn’t enough, maybe a movement, a sound, a song or picture helps you express and comprehend what’s going on inside you. Whatever you decide, in your session with me, you have a choice. I would be honored to help you, whether it be through helping you accomplish your goals, explore your thoughts and feelings or make positive and productive changes to your life. I hope to hear from you soon. If you would like to learn more about me, check out my website: https://baileyclinicalservices.com
