You deserve someone who shows up for you.
Really shows up.

Willow Tree Counseling offers warm, evidence-based therapy for trauma, anxiety, and life's hardest transitions. You don't have to have it all figured out to begin.

A space to heal:
Exactly as you are

You don’t have to filter or perform here. You can show up without judgement or expectation. I’ll meet you with presence, curiosity, and a genuine desire to understand your story.

How I work

Therapy that meets you
exactly where you are

A genuine, attuned relationship is at the heart of healing. Here's what to expect:

Trauma-Informed Care

Rooted in evidence-based approaches (including EMDR) that help your brain process and heal at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

Warm & Genuine

I’m not a blank slate in the therapy room. Meaningful therapy happens through authentic connection, honest conversation, and room for humor and lightness.

Affirming & Inclusive

Proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming. Every part of your identity is not just tolerated here. It's genuinely welcomed and held with care.

About Danell Will

Meet the therapist

I believe healing happens in spaces where you are allowed to be fully yourself. A space where you don't have to filter or perform, but can show up exactly as you are, without judgment or expectation. My role is to meet you there with presence, curiosity, and care, allowing me to be deeply engaged in understanding your story. I'm not a blank slate in the therapy room. I show up as a real, engaged person while maintaining the boundaries and thoughtfulness that make therapy both safe and meaningful.

My work is rooted in a trauma-informed, person-centered approach and shaped by a deep respect for your autonomy. I see you as the expert of your own life, and I trust your internal wisdom, even when it feels hard to access. I allow that to guide our work together, offering support, reflection, and gentle challenge when it's helpful.

A Path to Healing:
EMDR Therapy

Specialized Support for Lasting Change

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from trauma and other distressing life experiences. Rather than relying solely on talking through experiences, EMDR works by helping the brain process and integrate memories that may feel "stuck", so they are no longer as intense or disruptive in your daily life.

The Story Behind the Name

The willow tree has long been a symbol of resilience, adaptability, and quiet strength. It bends without breaking, staying rooted while learning to move with what comes. It is also often associated with intuition, inner wisdom, and deep emotional healing - holding space for growth even in the aftermath of difficult experiences.
