Stella Bailey

Stella Bailey, Ph.D., LMFT, has dedicated the last two decades to enriching the lives of her clients as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Based in Portland, Oregon, Stella offers her expertise not only through direct client services but also as a passionate educator at a local university, where she teaches courses on family dynamics and therapeutic communication. Her commitment lies in empowering families and individuals to build healthier relationships, focusing especially on those affected by intergenerational trauma.

In 2023, after completing an advanced degree in cultural studies, Stella launched a platform named "Bridging Generations," aimed at fostering dialogue between different age groups within communities. The platform features monthly discussions and workshops that explore themes such as digital literacy for seniors, youth activism, and cultural heritage preservation. In early 2024, she released a book titled Bridging Generations: Stories of Connection and Growth, which compiles personal narratives and professional insights on bridging the gap between generations.

An avid traveler and storyteller, Stella often shares tales from her adventures around the world with her community. She finds joy in her vibrant life in Portland, surrounded by her supportive partner, a lively circle of friends, and a diverse group of mentees who inspire her daily. When she's not traveling or teaching, you might find Stella hiking in the nearby forests or hosting storytelling nights at her cozy home.
