Timothy Bailey is an artist and bandleader in Richmond, Virginia. He is a survivor of severe and prolonged childhood abuse resulting in lifelong post-traumatic mental illness. His acclaimed debut album, “Timothy Bailey & the Humans,” traces a narrative from despair and isolation to hope and connection. Timothy is passionate about contributing to public understanding of early trauma’s effects as well as advocating for art as an indispensable tool for healing.“More than once I found myself wandering around the streets of Washington, D.C., with my shirt buttoned wrong, unsure of who I was, or where I was,” says Timothy Bailey. “Each time, I found a piece of paper in my pocket with a phone number on it that I did not recognize and called it. The number was for my therapist, and she would tell me how to get home.”The search for a path out of trauma led to the founding of Timothy Bailey and the Humans.In This Episode:Timothy’s websiteTimothy on InstagramTimothy on FacebookTimothy's email---What's new with The Trauma Therapist Project!The Trauma 5: gold nuggets from my 600+ interviewsThe Therapists Teach Workshop: a workshop for therapists who want to create their first online course.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.You can learn more about what I do here:The Trauma Therapist Newsletter: celebrates the people and voices in the mental health profession.
