Meet the Therapist
Bailee Chilman, MA, LMHC, ATR-BC, LPAT, PMH-C
I have enjoyed working alongside and helping others achieve their goal(s) since I was a child. I was raised on Hoosier Hospitality and continue to reside in southern Indiana. I obtained my Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Southern Indiana and Master’s Degree in Art Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University. I’m a Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) through the Art Therapy Credentials Board, Inc., a Licensed Professional Art Therapist (LPAT) with the state of Kentucky and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with the state of Indiana.
While traditional talk therapy can be helpful for some, it is not for all. Art and other expressive therapies can be utilized as a tool to help people of all ages express, process and communicate their social and emotional needs when words aren’t enough. I enjoy working with children ages 3+ and have specialized in helping others regulate emotions, decrease and cope with stress, anxiety and depression; increase self-esteem, social skills and mood; and process traumatic events. I’m trained and utilize traditional EMDR as an evidenced based treatment modality in my work, and specifically trained do so with children and adolescents in expressive arts. I apply a person centered, trauma informed and family structured approach in my work.
I have experience working with children, adolescents and families as an art therapist and mental health counselor since 2018. As a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator, I enjoy supporting parents in growing their parenting tool-kit.
As a parent myself, I also have a passion for working with those who may struggle with Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders. In the spring of 2023, I trained with Postpartum International Support to enhance my knowledge and assessment of Perinatal Mood Disorders. I participated in the Advanced Perinatal Mental Health Psychotherapy course and hold the Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C).
Your story and what you choose to share is important to me and it is my hope to provide a place of safety, comfort, hope, healing and growth as you gain knowledge and obtain skills to use outside of our time together.
