About Connie
Connie Owens, LCSW, CSW, is a licensed social worker with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage sleep and other concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship or intimacy issues. Connie aims to meet people where they are and build straightforward plans that fit daily life.
Her style is warm and direct. Sessions combine practical skills with attention to personal values and beliefs. She works with issues tied to trauma, caregiving stress, chronic illness, body image, and parenting strain, among others. Sleep and rest are part of the concerns she helps people address alongside mood and stress problems.
Connie uses a range of approaches rather than one fixed method. She draws on cognitive behavioral tools, acceptance-based work, attachment ideas, and client-centered listening to shape treatment. She also integrates dialectical strategies and draws on faith-based perspectives when clients request them.
Her background includes long-term clinical work across settings and multiple state licensure. She emphasizes looking at the whole person - mind, body, soul, and spirit - and often brings practical lifestyle elements into plans. Nutrition and functional health ideas may be discussed when relevant to a person’s sleep or mood difficulties.
Connie aims to help people break unhelpful patterns and build skills they can use every day. She encourages collaboration, clear goals, and steady steps toward better rest and daily functioning.
How Connie’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, doable steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It often helps with sleep problems tied to worry, stress, or low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, such as sleep routines, thought challenges, and activity planning for mood and rest. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect emotion regulation and sleep, which can matter for people recovering from trauma or relationship stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work, and Connie treats that as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they pick techniques that match current needs and adjust them over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and let people try short check-ins or longer skill-building visits when needed. The therapist’s specific session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can support practical changes such as adjusting evening routines, practicing relaxation exercises, and doing thought-record or behavioral experiments between meetings to improve sleep and daily functioning.
