Hi, I'm Jheanelle Bailey, a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 17 years of experience caring for individuals with cancer. My background includes pediatric and adult oncology, chemotherapy infusion, and inpatient and outpatient cancer care, giving me a deep understanding of the emotional challenges that can come with a cancer diagnosis. While I have a special passion for supporting patients, survivors, caregivers, and families affected by cancer, I also provide psychiatric care for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care—including medication management and brief therapy —in a supportive, judgment-free environment where every patient feels heard, understood, and empowered.

I have earned a MA in Counseling from Webster University. I am an EMDRIA trained EMDR therapist. I treat depression, anxiety, and trauma.

I am an individual who truly cares about your well-being. I graduated with a doctorate degree from the University of Alabama and completed a rare 2-year fellowship program which was awarded a prestigious ANCC accreditation award of distinction. I have rotated through a multitude of mental health settings (e.g. emergency dept, inpatient, hospital consults, treatment resistant depression and many others). I believe every individual is deserving of quality care. Hablo español

Whether you’re navigating the challenges of trying to conceive, adjusting to life as a new mother, or balancing relationships and career, I’m here to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to help you process your feelings and find your footing in this new role.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’ve spent my career supporting children, parents, and families through some of life’s most challenging moments. My background includes working in the NICU, early childhood mental health, and supporting families navigating trauma, medical complexity, parenting stress, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions.

I am especially passionate about working with women during pregnancy and postpartum, parents, caregivers, and individuals who have spent so much time caring for others that they’ve forgotten how to care for themselves.

I bring warmth, authenticity, and a little humor into sessions when appropriate. Therapy with me is a judgment-free space where you can show up exactly as you are.
