Adrian Owen , LPC, LCPC

Adrian Owen is a Licensed Professional Counselor who draws on more than a decade of experience helping people navigate substance use, mental health challenges, and everyday life stressors. She has built a practice focused on co-occurring disorders - where substance use and mental health conditions overlap - and brings practical, action-oriented strategies to support recovery and lasting change. Adrian works with individuals facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue, among other struggles. She also addresses related issues such as codependency, control problems, impulsivity, isolation, and challenges around sexuality and self-love.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods including Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques to tailor care to each person’s needs. She believes recovery is attainable and emphasizes taking steps that create momentum toward a different life. Adrian is credentialed as an LPC and LCPC - meaning she holds licensure as a professional counselor in clinical practice - and is also recognized as a Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider. She approaches work with compassion and a focus on practical change, inviting people to explore their strengths and find the actions that move them forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Adrian Owen uses approaches that emphasize skills, motivation, and emotional balance to help people manage distress and build forward momentum. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and adjust unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that maintain symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship challenges. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people clarify their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment, often used in recovery from substance use and when ambivalence is present.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Adrian works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors strategies so the plan fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit the method.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - provide flexibility for busy schedules, reduce travel barriers, and allow consistent contact with licensed professionals. These formats make it easier to access support from home or on the go while working with a therapist to learn practical skills and make steady progress.
