Anais Bailly, LCSW

Anais Bailly is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She also supports those facing trauma, compassion fatigue, career questions, and intimacy-related concerns. Anais offers care in English and Haitian Creole and works from New York with eight years of clinical experience.

Her approach is down-to-earth and collaborative. Sessions focus on naming what feels hard, building practical skills, and testing small changes people can try between meetings. She aims to create a calm space where clients can speak honestly about guilt, shame, attachment wounds, or family conflict.

Anais draws from client-centered methods to follow each person’s priorities and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach tools for managing intense emotions. She also uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to support movement toward goals. Narrative therapy is used to help people reframe painful stories about themselves and their relationships.

Work often includes concrete communication strategies, ways to handle control and commitment issues, and coping plans for life transitions like divorce or immigration stress. Parents and caregivers can address fatherhood issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver burnout in focused conversations.

Beginning therapy with Anais typically means identifying a few clear goals, trying simple behavioral changes, and tracking what helps. People looking to start will follow the service's matching steps to schedule according to her availability.

Approaches that shape online sessions

Anais uses client-centered work to follow each person’s goals and priorities. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the client, and helping them choose the next steps that feel right. It is useful for relationship questions, self-esteem work, and parenting concerns.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy, which teaches concrete skills for handling strong emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and problems with communication or control. Mindfulness practices are added to help people notice their thinking and calm the body in stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Anais works with clients to identify priorities, try techniques that fit their goals, and adjust methods when needed. She frames treatment as a collaborative process that matches strategies to present needs and personal preferences.

If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and support consistent check-ins after difficult days. It can also allow shorter or flexible sessions when a quick skill check or a brief coaching moment is needed.
