Willard Family Therapy
Who We Are
Willard Family Therapy is a group practice dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s most complex and tender seasons. We believe meaningful healing happens in the context of safe relationships, thoughtful care, and therapy that honors the whole person, not just symptoms.
Our team of licensed and associate therapists brings a wide range of training and perspectives, allowing us to thoughtfully match clients with clinicians who fit their needs and goals. We value collaboration, ethical care, and ongoing growth, and we approach therapy with both clinical expertise and genuine compassion.
We offer therapy in person at our Riverdale, Utah office, as well as secure teletherapy services to clients throughout the state of Utah. At Willard Family Therapy, we prioritize connection, integrity, and respect, creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to move toward clarity, resilience, and lasting change, whether they are navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or family transitions.
