Connie Owens, LCSW, CSW

Connie Owens, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and CSW, holds Colorado licensure and has 25 years of practice experience. She focuses on addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, stress, LGBT issues, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other life changes. Her approach blends several clinical methods she lists, and she describes her style as direct but gentle.

Connie uses a mix of evidence-informed methods in sessions rather than a single technique. She names Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment work, Client-Centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy among her approaches. Sessions address psychological symptoms along with practical factors that affect daily life.

Her background includes long-term work with trauma and substance use disorders, and she notes experience across life stages including hospice-related care. She mentions work with people who have experienced narcissistic abuse and says she has helped many clients change patterns that kept them stuck.

Connie also references years of Christian counseling experience and says she incorporates clients' spiritual beliefs when requested. She notes additional training in functional nutrition and describes an orientation that considers mind and body interactions.

In practice she aims to combine direct feedback with respect for values and beliefs. The first sessions typically focus on identifying current problems and practical steps to reduce distress while building skills to manage ongoing challenges.
