What my clients say
★★★★★
The best therapist I have ever interacted with. So grateful for Sheila’s knowledge, wisdom and expertise.
★★★★★
Love my therapy sessions! Sheila listens, provides feedback and info, even when it’s not what I want to hear. She is thorough and understanding. I can feel and see progress and growth. Never felt more comfortable. Thanks, Sheila!
★★★★★
Sheila Owens is an extremely talented, knowledgeable, and empathetic person. She approaches sessions with compassion, concern, and clarity. I have had issues with other therapists in the past, and I was pleasantly surprised with how helpful my sessions are. I trust Ms. Owens’ expertise and recommend her unconditionally.
★★★★★
I have nothing but positive things to say about Sheila! Every session she made me feel comfortable and safe to talk with her. I shared with her a past bad experience with a therapist and she validated my feelings and assured nothing like that would happen with her, and it didn’t. She gave me the tools to reframe my way of thinking and it’s helped improve my life and relationships. I will genuinely miss her & our sessions now that i feel like i’ve gotten to a place where i don’t need therapy. But, if that were to change Sheila would be the first person i’d call!
★★★★★
Sheila is very kind, respectful, and knowledgeable. I enjoy my sessions and learn a lot that helps me get better after every session
