Leigh Owens is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, MHSP, NCC) who brings a deep understanding of trauma, addiction, and pain to her practice. With a personal journey of recovery from substance abuse that began in January of 1991, she relates to the struggles of her clients and understands what it means to move from brokenness to wholeness. She recognizes that addiction and other maladaptive behaviors are often symptoms of deeper-rooted issues. For those who feel they know the right path yet struggle to take the steps needed, Leigh is dedicated to providing the support necessary to navigate this complex journey. Specializing in trauma recovery, Leigh helps individuals uncover the underlying motivations for their behaviors. She emphasizes that awareness of these driving forces is essential for change—acknowledging the past is the first step toward transformation. What sets Leigh apart from many practitioners is her personal life experience, which gives her unique insights into recovery from early childhood trauma, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and issues related to co-dependency. Influenced by a Christian worldview, she approaches her work from a foundation of grace and love, offering compassionate counseling that truly embodies the principles of positive psychology and mindfully centered therapeutic practices.
