Hi-

I am a clinical social worker who is passionate about helping people through life’s struggles. I specialize in treating mood, anxiety disorders and trauma. I am an affirming, sex positive therapist who believes every individual , regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion or race should be treated with respect and dignity. Please know that my office is a safe place, and you are welcome here!!. My primary method of therapy is cognitive-behavioral, which focuses on reframing distorted, negative thought patterns that have caused distress and inhibited progress and/or personal growth. It is equally important to me to understand how your life experiences have shaped you into who you are today. I  am not a "nod your head and repeat back to me" type of therapist, as I  I don’t believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. I find a collaborative relationship that highlights solutions, effective ways of coping and increased insight to be the most effective. I look forward to getting to know you and most importantly, helping you on your journey. Please contact me at loriowenslcsw@yahoo.com or (404)247-2504 to set up your initial appointment.

💚, Lori
