The Willow Collective grew from the belief that real healing happens when we feel safe enough to be our full, authentic selves — in spaces that make room for real people: messy, beautiful, complex, and human, without judgment or pretense.
Like the willow tree, we are both grounded (in our values) and flexible (in our approach with clients), offering shelter to those seeking it. We designed this collective to be a haven — a space where clients can rest and heal, and where therapists are genuinely supported, not drained by the work they love.

We are a therapy collective committed to
social justice through practicing and modeling equity, compassion, and ethical integrity.
Every clinician here shares core values of autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, justice, veracity, and fidelity — values that guide not just our work, but how we show up in relationships every day.
our mission is
simple, yet radical
to cultivate collective healing through care that is
deeply rooted, fiercely ethical, and profoundly human
the roots of our care
safety & belonging
Safety and belonging guide everything we do. We create environments that invite openness and trust — spaces where real connection and honest reflection can take shape naturally over time.
This allows both clients and clinicians to engage in meaningful work without pretense or pressure.
equity & justice
We approach every person and story with curiosity and respect. Our work recognizes that healing looks different for everyone, and we aim to meet each client with fairness, balance, and cultural consideration.
We stay mindful of the larger systems that
shape people’s experiences while keeping the focus on individual growth and agency.
integrity & care
Integrity means following through — being consistent, transparent, and thoughtful in our work. Care shows up not only in what we do, but in how we do it: with presence, honesty, and accountability.
These values guide how we make decisions, hold boundaries, and build lasting therapeutic relationships.
We are a safe space for people of all gender expressions, sexual affectional orientations, ability statuses, religions, ethnic and racial backgrounds, and more.
