About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Owen is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio with 45 years of clinical experience. He welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed and wants to partner with them to move toward clearer coping and calmer days. He emphasizes respect, acceptance, and honest conversation as the foundation of his work.
Jeff focuses on problems such as anger, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also supports people dealing with parenting stress, caregiving strain, attachment and abandonment concerns, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
His range includes mood disorders and challenges tied to recovery and relapse from substance use. His style blends humanistic, cognitive, and practical methods. He uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to each person's needs.
He integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to help people identify patterns and build new skills. Jeff studied clinical hypnotherapy and has applied those techniques selectively with appropriately screened clients. Over decades he has also drawn on existential and Jungian ideas to help people find meaning and move through difficult emotions.
He describes his work as eclectic, pragmatic, and tailored to individual goals. In sessions he aims for active, authentic dialogue rather than a passive approach. He focuses on building rapport, clarifying problems, and setting practical steps people can use between meetings.
For people seeking flexible access, he offers multiple online session formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and responding to what each person needs in the moment. It helps when someone needs acceptance and clear, respectful feedback to untangle feelings and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening communication. It can help when strong reactivity or impulsive behavior gets in the way of daily life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods as progress and preferences become clearer. That makes the process collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates or work through quick concerns between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into hectic schedules and keep continuity during life changes.
