Gregory Owens, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Gregory!

I work with young adults, pre-/post-marital couples, and individuals of all ethnicities and genders. My approach to therapy centers on my desire to help clients discover, learn, grow, and heal.

My focus

I work with young adults, pre- and post-marital couples, grieving individuals, as well as individuals of all ethnicities and genders.

My approach

My therapeutic approach includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client Focused Therapy, Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, and Gestalt. I believe that clients are resourceful and possess a unique set of strengths that will aid them in the therapeutic process as we collaborate.

My communication style

The environment I create for my clients is one of non-evasiveness, collaboration, and a sense of peace and safety. During sessions, it is my goal to assure my clients of the power they possess within them, using non-directive approaches.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been intrigued with human behavior, and having my two oldest of four children suffer from severe mental illness, it was my initial passion to discover from a clinical standpoint, who they are and why. It has been my continued passion to help others cross this barrier of the unknown when it comes to mental health.

My goals for you

My goal-setting approach is based on the direct and immediate needs of the client while collaborating with the client to ensure goals are realistic and attainable.

Our first session

Clients will experience a safe and peaceful environment, allowing them to feel at ease and feel the ability to be transparent.
