Willow Tree Counseling Services

Welcome

Just by being here, you have made the brave decision to prioritize your well-being. I get how new and different this might be. Maybe this is the first time you are putting yourself first, and doing something that is for you. You may be used to taking care of other people in your life, and putting their needs in front of your own. It may be hard to really even recognize what your needs are after all this time. It’s overwhelming trying to balance everything while keeping it all together.

You may be in a new phase of life, whether a mom for the first time, making a career change, or adjusting to life during a transition. Trying to navigate your way through these changes can feel isolating, and like no one understands. Sometimes it can feel like you aren’t even sure who you are anymore, like you don’t really feel “yourself” at all.

It’s exhausting to never feel like you have your feet on solid ground. That you are never getting enough done, or that you have never accomplished enough. Or that you are never enough.

We all deserve to feel enough, worthy, and fulfilled in our lives.
I understand that being vulnerable with a stranger can be scary and I commend you on taking this first step towards becoming your best self.

I look forward to helping you on your journey towards change.

“The willow which bends to the tempest often escapes better than the oak which resists it; and so in great calamities, it sometimes happens that light and frivolous spirits recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner than those of a loftier character.” – Albert Schweitzer

Therapy is beneficial to help uncover the strengths you already have and identify the skills to better manage the challenges in your life. It’s an opportunity to speak vulnerably with someone who can support you and help to problem-solve for solutions.
