Hi, I’m Chelsea Bailey (she/her), LCSW

Therapist in Nashville, TN

I believe we all have the intrinsic wisdom to know what we need to live balanced, fulfilling lives. Sometimes the behaviors and beliefs we learn to cope with overwhelming life experiences separate us from that wisdom.

My hope is to provide a non-judgmental, compassionate setting to help you connect with your innate capacity to heal and feel greater connection with yourself and meaning in your life. 

  • Internal Family Systems

    Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals understand and heal different parts of themselves, fostering self-compassion, inner balance, and deep healing from trauma by addressing protective and wounded parts with care and curiosity.

  • Brainspotting

    Brainspotting is a focused therapy that helps process and release deep emotional and physical pain, trauma, and other challenging symptoms by using eye position to access the brain’s natural healing ability.

  • Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)

    Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines therapy with ketamine as a tool to help individuals experience profound and lasting improvement.

  • Religious Trauma and Cult Recovery

    I provide a supportive space for healing from religious and cult trauma, including the effects of indoctrination, thought reform, and purity culture. With compassion and clarity, I aim to help individuals through the process of deconstruction, rebuilding self-trust, and reclaiming autonomy.
