Ruth Owen, LCPC, LMHC — Therapist in Florida

Hi there, I'm Ruth!

I’m passionate about supporting adolescents and adults as they navigate life's challenges. With a diverse background, I’m here to help you find your way through difficult times, deal with anxiety, and move past trauma.

My focus

I support teens and young adults dealing with anxiety and past trauma. I especially enjoy working with clients moving through significant transitions like loss, divorce, or other stressful life events.

My approach

My priority is to ensure you feel heard and understood. Together, we'll explore the issues impacting your life, set goals, and identify effective strategies for meaningful change. I blend cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques with a client-centered approach tailored to your unique needs.

My communication style

I strive to maintain trust and respect in our relationship. I am open and straightforward, and I want to get to know you and understand your life experiences.

My journey to mental healthcare

I truly want to help people be the best version of themselves. We all encounter difficulties and need help to move through them. Many of us suffered trauma or loss early in life and need help recovering and growing. I want you to know you're not alone as you gain the skills and tools to meet your goals.

My goals for you

We'll set goals that focus on your needs. Together, we'll develop the skills and tools you need to navigate your path, identify your strengths, and move toward a more comfortable and successful life.

Our first session

I want to get to know you. How are you hurting? What is making life hard? What supports do you already have? Together, we will lay the groundwork to move forward.
