Dr. Jessica Owen
Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and I am passionate about working with people, helping them find peace, healing, and resolution. I do not use a predetermined approach, but rather, I tailor the therapeutic experience to meet each individual's needs and treatment goals.
As your therapist, I aim to empower you by helping you build confidence and self agency.
Our goals will be centered around helping you establish coping skills in order to build your confidence to overcome life's challenges. I want to help you overcome your internal battles you thought were impossible.
First session
Your first session will involve a discussion about your history and current daily struggles. We will also make plans for how your future can be brighter.
Strengths
My approach is to meet you where you are without judgement. I aim to offer genuine understanding and support. It's important to me that you feel heard and understood. As your psychologist, I aim to empower you by helping you build confidence, self agency, and find peace. I enjoy finding humor and laughing when appropriate. I encourage and welcome your feedback - I want to make sure we are on the same page, that you are growing, and you are meeting your goals.
Ideal clients
I specialize in working with adults who struggle with symptoms of ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Managing these symptoms can be very overwhelming and result in us feeling like there is no way out. Often, these symptoms negatively impact relationships, career performance, and daily functioning. Together, we will set goals that help you build healthy coping skills and reduce problematic behaviors.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a treatment method used to help gain control over negative thoughts and cognitive distortions that seemingly occur automatically. CBT helps to identify negative thought patterns and replace them more positive thoughts and desirable behaviors.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness is used to help increase self awareness, emotional regulation, and our ability to live presently.
Supportive
Supportive therapy focuses on managing present-day problems and enhancing existing strengths. It is goal-oriented, empathetic, and patient-centered approach designed to reduce immediate distress, strengthen coping skills, and maintain or improve self-esteem and daily functioning.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) is a goal-oriented, short-term approach that focuses on identifying a client's strengths and resources to find solutions to their problems, rather than dwelling on the problems themselves.
