Bailey Delong , LCSW, LICSW

Bailey Delong is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts (LICSW). LCSW and LICSW are clinical social work licenses that indicate training to provide mental health services and psychotherapy.

She has worked extensively with children and families and has experience supporting medically fragile individuals as well as adolescents facing eating disorders. Her clinical caseload has also included people managing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, grief, and major life transitions. Bailey’s practice emphasizes eating and food-related concerns alongside broader emotional and relational issues.

Her therapeutic style is described as supportive and empowering, grounded in evidence-based practices. She integrates family-based perspectives with cognitive-behavioral techniques, humanistic ideas, and family systems thinking to form a flexible treatment approach. Bailey believes that individual healing is shaped by the surrounding support and environment, and she adapts treatment plans to meet clients where they feel most comfortable. She welcomes the opportunity to support growth and change for those who reach out for help.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and supports each person’s own pace of change. This approach helps when someone needs an empathetic space to explore self-esteem, life changes, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, or depression and teaching practical skills to shift those patterns. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, mood symptoms, and eating-related thoughts and behaviors.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and awareness practices to help people relate differently to difficult emotions and urges, supporting coping with stress and promoting steadier responses to triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bailey Delong collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.

Online sessions make these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow people to connect from different locations, and help maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are impractical. Licensed professionals can adapt therapeutic tools effectively across these formats to support meaningful progress.
