Jeffrey Owen, LPCC

Jeffrey Owen is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in Ohio who brings 45 years of clinical experience to his therapeutic work. He welcomes and supports the decision to seek help and approaches each partnership with confidence in the meaningful progress that can be achieved together. Early in his career he assisted Vietnam combat veterans coping with severe post-traumatic stress, and since then he has focused primarily on adults aged 18 to 85 managing a wide range of emotional and life challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, addiction recovery and relapse, trauma, LGBTQ concerns, geriatric issues, and difficult life-stage transitions.

He holds a graduate degree in Mental Health Counseling and pursued certification in clinical hypnotherapy in 1992, integrating those techniques selectively with carefully screened clients who may benefit from regression and hypnotherapeutic approaches. His therapeutic orientation is grounded in humanistic principles and shaped by Eriksonian and Jungian perspectives on development, while remaining eclectic, pragmatic, and flexible in practice. Over time he has incorporated more cognitive and didactic interventions to help clients understand the nature of their difficulties and feel empowered by that knowledge.

Jeff is increasingly trauma-focused, combining cognitive-behavioral methods with other modalities to address clients in extreme crisis. His work emphasizes an active, authentic therapeutic dialogue, the building of a strong working alliance, and a reliably supportive environment in which clients can confront obstacles and pursue clear, achievable goals.
