Introduction

Christen Willard is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and has been actively serving and growing in the field of mental health for nine years and counting. Her professional background ranges from working with inner-city youth in at-risk communities to supporting the elderly population in hospice care, and everything in between. Her post-licensure work targeted adults 18 years and up, primarily providing short-term solution-focused therapy in the framework of CBT and DBT modalities. Now, through her private practice, Will to Heal, PLLC, she offers faith-based virtual psychotherapy services to individuals living in Arizona and California, who are struggling with identity challenges manifested by anxiety, depression, stress, grief, faith struggles, and more. From her own lived experience, Christen has developed a deep desire to help others live in the true joy, peace, and fulfillment that come with accurately knowing who you were created to be and fully operating in your God-given purpose, and she is grateful she gets to fulfill that desire through her practice and the work she does today.
