When we are no longer

able to change a situation, We are challenged to change ourselves

The mission of Willow Grace Wellness is to educate, eliminate & eradicate stigma associated with counseling and mental health services, especially in communities of color; and provide affordable counseling services to support the emotional health needs of the community. Through Willow-Grace Wellness individuals, groups and families will work with licensed professionals to grow, heal and overcome life challenges in a safe, supportive and confidential, environment.

The vision to establish Willow Grace Wellness was divinely planted and inspired to meet the needs of the community in Birmingham, Alabama and surrounding areas. The need was solidified after a profound awareness of the many health & behavioral health disparities that challenge the well-being of communities of color in the area. While WGW is passionate about the mental & emotional health restoration of communities of color, our goal is to support all individuals, families,

and groups in crisis regardless of ethnicity.

We offer support counseling services to individuals & couples. WGW also seeks to help support families struggling to understand and facilitate the needs of loved ones undergoing behavioral therapeutic treatment or life challenges. Willow-Grace focuses on enabling behaviors, codependency, education, reconciliation, healthy boundaries, support, forgiveness and everyday life stressors.

Willow Grace Wellness is professionally diverse in the fact that counseling services are tailored to meet your

individualized needs. Our goal is to collaborate with you to incorporate your life experiences both personally & culturally.

All of us have been broken or wounded at some point in our lives. When this happens, it can be difficult sometimes to get back on track. Our goal is to help you walk in wellness. Our focus is you!

We feel it is important to engage with you, and in your story. We will work diligently with you to understand where you are in life , and how life experiences have impacted your journey. Struggles are often symptomatic of a deeper story. Our goal is to walk with you to a refreshing place of awareness , strength and healing. Our blended clinical approaches to wellness include; motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and more.

We are trained professionally to walk with you from a single scope therapeutic lens, or, a comprehensive lens which includes a Christian faith perspective. The decision of which lens to use is totally up to you. We realize that not all counseling is created equal. Much of what you receive in a counseling session is based on building a relationship of trust and good rapport with your counselor or therapist. It is our commitment to support you, to be present, and fully engaged as you do your work to walk in wellness.
