Audra Owens
My career in social services has given me the rare opportunity and privilege to accompany others throughout much of life’s journey – from the miracle of birth as an adoption advocate, to helping senior populations and their families as a counselor managing long term care and end of life issues.
One of the universal truths I have learned is that struggle and adversity are an inescapable part of the human experience. Rather than let these challenges destroy you, my role is to help you on your journey to grow and work through the hardships of life and become the healthiest and happiest version of yourself.
I believe that human connection is key to our survival and happiness. When our connections become disrupted it can cause tremendous distress. I can help you recognize and restructure former negative cycles into healthy patterns of interaction, and to protect the relationships that are most important to you.
I primarily utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy methods, as well as trauma informed care. As a result, I can help you understand and develop more safe and secure connections that will lead to improved mental health and overall well-being. Both are crucial for healing from the majority of traumas, addictions, and relationship issues you might experience in life.
