Bailey Oros, MD, LCSW-C

Bailey Oros provides therapy to residents of Maryland and offers support for people navigating heavy or complex life experiences. She creates a calm, attentive space where people can feel heard and supported while they process difficult emotions or transitions.

Bailey specializes in helping individuals and caregivers who are facing serious medical challenges, including those exploring or receiving palliative care, hospice, or other end-of-life services. She helps patients and family members manage anticipatory grief, caregiver fatigue, complex medical decisions, and the emotional impact of serious illness.

She is a certified brain injury specialist (CBIS) and frequently works with caregivers of people affected by traumatic brain injury, acquired brain injury, and various kinds of stroke. Bailey also supports individuals coping with medical trauma and post-traumatic stress related to critical illness or intensive care stays, recognizing that recovery often includes emotional work alongside physical healing.

Grief work is a central focus of her practice. She acknowledges that loss can take many forms - from the death of a loved one to the end of a relationship, the loss of a future once imagined, changes in health or identity, or the death of a pet - and believes each form of grief deserves attention and compassion.

Bailey holds MD and LCSW-C credentials; the MD indicates a medical degree and LCSW-C denotes a licensed clinical social worker. She describes her approach as collaborative and flexible, combining moments of empathetic listening with practical, goal-oriented tools when helpful. As a straight white woman, she acknowledges not sharing every lived experience of her clients yet is committed to providing an affirming, culturally responsive space for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals. She aims to meet people where they are and to walk alongside them through loss, caregiving challenges, trauma, and life changes.
