Kathy Owen
Marriage & Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Verified
Let me take a moment to describe the kind of person with whom I enjoy working. I'll call her Jamie. She was successful in many ways, but she had noticed a pattern in her relationships with men. When she looked back, she saw they didn't treat her with respect. Some of them were verbally abusive. Some of them were even physically abusive. They were completely erratic in their jobs. Drugs and alcohol were sometimes part of the problem, too. Jamie had decided it was time for change; for her own sake and for the sake of her young son.

You know that saying “Never judge a book by its cover”? Well, I can honestly say that the cover of my book does not match the pages! The pages in my book of life have not only taught many life lessons but has equipped me with knowledge and experience to connect with ALL people. Because some of my pages are not all filled with butterflies and sunshine, I’ve done the work to find ways to help equip myself with daily coping skills. I'm happy to be in a place to share my experience with others through therapy, life consulting and women courses.

My office is a no-blame/no-shame environment. I provide both traditional talk therapy as well as Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) to individuals (age 8 and up), couples, and families just 20 miles SE of Dallas.
