Do you provide online therapy to clients who live out-of-state?

What should I do if I need to cancel/reschedule an appointment?
Email us at support@willowtreewc.com.
We ask for 24-hour notice of all cancellations so we can offer your time slot to another client who needs to be seen. If we do not receive 24-hour notice, a $60 late cancellation fee will apply.
I had a consultation with a therapist at Willow Tree and it wasn’t a good fit. What should I do?
Goodness of fit between you and your therapist is paramount in treatment being successful. As such, we’d be happy to offer you a session with one of our other therapists to see if it’s a better match. If you’d prefer to receive care elsewhere, we can make a referral to a provider outside of our practice.
