Alison Bailey, LICSW

I was born and raised in Bellingham. I received my undergraduate degree from Western Washington University in 2008 and a master’s degree from the Univeristy of Southern California in 2013. Common treatment methods I have experience practicing include cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, problem solving therapy, exposure therapy, trauma-Informed care, and crisis intervention.

My passion is helping improve the lives of individuals by using their strengths to heal their mind and body. I enjoy working together in a collaborative care model as it adds two vital professional roles that support and enhance the treatment experience. Though I utilize many treatment methods, I have a special interest in cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-informed care.

When I’m not working, I keep busy at home raising two young children. I also enjoy traveling, outdoor walks, and spending time with friends and family.
