Often chaos, like a storm, when settled brings Clarity.

Welcome

 
  • ​Have you experienced a trauma in your past that you just can’t get out of your head?

  • Has anxiety taken over to the point that you avoid many situations, events, or people, but you really want to participate?

  • Have you been feeling depressed almost daily for two weeks?

If you answered yes to one or more of the above questions, you're not alone. Many struggle with their mental health, and the pain and confusion they often feel. I offer compassion, confidentiality, and personalized care along with the skills, training, and experience necessary to journey with you to cope, problem-solve, and improve the quality of your life. With your commitment, we'll work together to ease or eliminate symptoms that have interfered with living your life. I work with adult individual clients to address trauma, anxiety, depression and/or insomnia.

Endorsements

I have had the pleasure of knowing Twila Owens, LCSW for the last 16 years. We worked together for over five years at a Mental Health outpatient clinic, where I served for at least four years as her supervisor. Twila’s therapy approach is warm, approachable, and client centered. She has years of successful experience working with adults and their families that spans a variety of issues and methods. Twila is conscientious of the need for continuous education in the mental health field and she has become prolific in several therapeutic approaches, including Sand Tray Therapy and Emotional Behavioral Therapy. Most importantly, Twila really cares about her clients and has their best interests at heart. I proudly endorse this gracious, fun, and caring Mental Health Clinician!
— Melody Mortenson, LCSW, P.L.L.C.
I first met Twila in 2004 and we have maintained contact for the past 17 years. During that time, I had the opportunity and privilege to work with her in two different areas. Once as a co-therapist for a client and most recent as a Mental Health outpatient clinic. Twila has always been available and willing to work with other professionals to best meet the needs of clients. She has always been passionate about her work and her approach to therapy and her clients. Twila has a never-ending desire to continue her education, learn and use new techniques, as well as sharing these resources professionally. Also, her commitment and involvement with her family has always stood out. She is a caring wife, mother, grandmother, as well as a spectacular therapist. It is with great honor that I proudly endorse this incredible therapist and person! Her integrity and ethics in ever aspect of her life.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Twila Owens, LCSW since I started working with her at an outpatient mental health clinic in 2018. I had heard about how wonderful of a therapist she was beforehand, and I quickly got to see that she lived up to her great reputation. Twila is easily able to establish rapport with patients of all ages. Her empathy, experience, and willingness to go the extra mile allows patients to trust her and achieve their therapeutic goals. Her mastery of clinical skills has helped so many patients overcome struggles they had lived with for years before starting therapy with her. Twila is not only an excellent clinician, but also a truly wonderful human being! Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly endorse Twila Owens, LCSW.

Adult, Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist
Twila Owens, LCSW and I first met in 2016, working together in a community mental health clinic. Twila is professional, trustworthy, kind, and intuitive, with a calm, welcoming demeanor. She is also a fierce ally and advocate- standing up for patients against systems barriers or other harms in their lives. She is an effective, proactive communicator with good clinical outcomes and client satisfaction. Her insights and active role on our team helped deliver a high level of patient care that we would not have achieved otherwise. Twila offers a flexible, evidence-based approach geared toward addressing the client’s focal treatment problem while keeping in mind the nuances of who they are as an individual as well as past and current contributing factors. She can work with a wide variety of patient ages and situations. Twila is the type of therapist you have at the top of your list to refer patients, family, and friends to. Northwest Arkansas is lucky to have Twila Owens as a mental health care provider, and I am proud to have her as a colleague.
