About Anais

Anais Bailly is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She also helps people dealing with trauma, family problems, and feelings like guilt and shame.

Anais uses straightforward conversation to help people sort out what matters. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking rather than jargon. She draws on client-centered methods so the person’s concerns lead the work.

Her approach also includes mindfulness techniques to manage strong emotions and grounding when stress or anxiety feels overwhelming. She uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach skills for emotion regulation and communication. Narrative and motivational interviewing tools are used to reframe difficult events and to support small, doable changes.

Sessions are conducted in English and Haitian Creole, and Anais aims to make steps feel manageable. She helps people talk through family of origin issues, forgiveness, intimacy challenges, and career or caregiving stress. She also addresses adoption, attachment, and immigration-related concerns.

People interested in working together start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches shape online sessions

Anais draws on client-centered therapy to make sessions about what the person brings. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and following the client’s priorities to understand guilt, shame, or relationship concerns.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. Those skills can help when guilt or shame leads to overwhelming feelings or repeated conflict. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these methods to build awareness of thoughts and bodily sensations and to reduce reactivity.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Anais will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust based on what helps. The aim is to find ways of working that feel practical and doable for the person.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit into a workday, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when needed. If you want to proceed, complete the matching questionnaire and schedule the first session to talk about how to structure future meetings.
