About Us
At Willow Counseling Services, we understand the profound impact that fertility, maternal mental health, and women’s health challenges can have on everyday life. These experiences are deeply personal and often far more complex than the advice to “just relax” suggests. We recognize the emotional weight that can come with infertility, pregnancy, postpartum, loss, and beyond—and we’re here to support you through it.
Our team of specialized clinicians provides thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to your unique experience. We go beyond simply talking things through, offering practical tools and approaches to help you feel more grounded, supported, and empowered.
Located conveniently in Dover, Delaware, with a brand-new office in Middletown, we offer both in-person and telehealth therapy options. We accept most major insurance plans, making care more accessible and flexible. Our offices are intentionally designed to feel warm and welcoming—moving away from the sterile, clinical environment and creating a space where you can truly feel at ease.
We also offer group psychotherapy, providing a supportive space to connect with others on similar journeys. Many clients find comfort in knowing they are not alone, gaining insight and strength through shared experiences.
Our clinicians are trained in a range of evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and client-centered therapy. Each treatment plan is personalized to meet you where you are.

When To Seek Counseling
Often people lean on their closest friends and family during difficult moments of their lives, but sometimes that is just not enough. Needing additional support while struggling with infertility, perinatal mood disorders or reproductive issues is completely normal. Research shows that women experiencing emotional pain stemming from infertility is similar to those dealing with cancer, HIV, and chronic pain. Some indicators of needing additional support include: overwhelming and persistent thoughts regarding the issue, anxieties, social isolation, conflict within relationships as well as thoughts of suicide or death. Contact Willow Counseling Services to speak to a clinician if you are unsure if counseling is right for you. We are happy to discuss how counseling may be beneficial to you.
