Expanding Access to Care: The Willow Center Opens New Location in Oregon to Address Mental Health Provider Shortage
The Willow Center offers counseling and therapy services for individuals, couples, & families; teens, children and adults in Oregon, Ohio.
The Willow Center chose Oregon as the home for its third location because Oregon is designated as a Mental Health Professional Shortage Area (MHPSA). This designation indicated that there are not enough mental health providers to meet the community's demand, which can lead to longer wait times for appointments and limited access to care.
As Northwest Ohioans, on a daily basis, we continue to offer our very best counseling and therapy services to the people with whom we share this remarkable corner of Ohio.
The Willow Center has a diverse team of 32 therapists, 5 relationship specialists, 2 psychiatrists, and 1 psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Our team provides therapy and psychiatry services to individuals, couples, and families, including teens, children, and adults. We offer support to clients with a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, stress management and relationship difficulties. The Willow Center is committed to the professional growth and development of our clinicians. Many of our providers offer specialized services which include psychiatry, trauma therapy using EMDR and IFS, couples counseling with use of training through the Gottman Institute, and LGBTQIA concerns.
At The Willow Center you get therapists, counselors, relationship and behavioral specialists who see their work as more than just a way to merely earn a living. Talk with any of our staff or clinicians and you’ll find a professional who is dedicated to serving the needs of people in our Oregon community with the belief that our work matters deeply. We believe that serving an individual, family, or couple has ripple effects that go on for decades longer than we will even get to see ourselves. We believe that the work we do to heal families, adults, teens, kids, couples and individuals changes the world in meaningful ways for generations. And that’s a pretty great reason to get up and come to work every day.
At Willow our counseling work is more than just our job - it’s Our Calling.

Why Therapy Works
Therapy is a powerful space for healing, growth, and self-discovery. It works because it gives you a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns alongside a trained, compassionate professional. Instead of staying stuck in the same old cycles, therapy helps you understand where those patterns came from and how to shift them. It’s not about “fixing” you — because you’re not broken, it’s about regaining your own strength, resilience, and clarity. With the right therapist, you can start to feel seen, supported, and understood in a way that brings real change.
How Therapy Can Help You
Whether you’re dealing with stress, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, trauma, or just feeling lost, a therapist can offer tools and insights, in a supportive space to help you feel better. Many people come to counseling feeling overwhelmed or stuck, and leave with a renewed sense of direction, peace, and self-awareness. You don’t have to go through hard things alone. Therapy can help you feel more in control of your life, more connected to others, and more at ease in your own mind and body. It’s a brave and meaningful step toward the life you want.
