Recent reviews
I have been dealing with Kelly Owens for almost 5 months. She makes me feel heard for possibly the first time in my life. She is kind, respectful, incredibly insightful, and she offers many suggestions to help me help myself. I couldn't ask for a more compassionate, intelligent, and patient therapist. I still have a lot of work to do, but Kelly has helped me so much in such a short amount of time. I am very grateful to her.
More about Kelly
- 9 years' experience

- LMHC, LPC
Welcome! My name is Kelly and I am a licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado, and a licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York. I have over 10 years experience working in the mental health field, and about 8 years of experience doing individual therapy. I went to college at the University at Buffalo, and then graduate school at Hofstra University. I have experience working in a variety of mental health settings, and I am well-versed in virtual teletherapy. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and complex trauma, as well as relationship/family issues, grief and loss, stress, and periods of transition.
During sessions with me, you can expect warmth and support, compassion and understanding. It is my job to help understand your goals for therapy and to assist you in achieving them. My approach to counseling will be tailored to each individual based on their specific needs. I know it can be difficult to ask for help, so I will assist you in a non-judgmental way and hope to help you overcome barriers to achieve your goals. I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I've had many therapists in my lifetime and Kelly is the most skilled therapist I have worked with. She is able to clearly restate my concerns, ask me insightful questions, and give me actionable advice. Looking forward to our continued work together!
It’s helping me more than expected
Listens very well and is efficient at tackling an issue from different angles. She's great at offering many solutions to climb your trauma mountain!
I haven't been with Kelly long, but WOW she is wonderful. In the short time ive been working with her she's helped me in many ways. I was very nervous about therapy, and thought i wouldn't be able to open up. But Kelly makes it feel like a true conversation, she makes me feel heard and like I matter and I appreciate that. She has made it easy for me to open up.
She is very understanding! She first grasps what the situation is. She doesnt rush to reply rather she listens. She offers new prespectives for my problem that I never though of before and those really help!!!
Kelly is very adept and perceptive at reading (in my case literally) the situation. She offers great advice in particularly difficult situations as mine and the solutions she offers have helped me get through. I thought it might be difficult to navigate online counseling, but Kelly makes it easy and available to use. My thoughts don't just come at that appointment hour, but online I can write and share my thoughts anytime and Kelly always responds. It's actually more productive.
Kelly is a super caring and lovely professional and has been great to talk to, and to help with my mental health through some pretty difficult times!
I've only been speaking with Kelly Owen's for a few weeks now but I feel very safe and open when speaking with her. She mostly responds back in a timely manner and always has some pretty good insight and thoughts, as well as supporting suggestions on how to handle, view and step back and think about what im truly struggling with
Kelly is warm, thoughtful and a soft ear for those in need. Having been in therapy before, I know when I click with and Kelly is one of those people. She lends a non judgmental and supportive ear.
I have been very pleased with Kelly's manner, thoughtful engagement, and encouragement. She has been an excellent help to me.
