Trees/Bushes

Our backyard has a lot of ground water under it, despite having underground drains, etc. It’s still very wet most of the time. We have been hesitant to plant any trees or bushes in the ground because we’ve found that most need well drained soil. Are there any trees and bushes that would thrive in that type of ground? And could they actually help soak up some of the ground water?
