Linda Owen

Linda Owen

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


"I believe that therapy should be as unique as the person sitting across from me. With nine years of clinical experience, I’ve learned that a 'one-size-fits-all' approach rarely works. That’s why I integrate evidence-based tools like CBT, EMDR, and REBT with a holistic, solution-focused framework to create a proactive plan tailored specifically to you.

My career has been defined by serving those in their most vulnerable moments—from life transitions and developmental stages to veterans and families navigating the complexities of service to individuals fighting addiction and codependency. Whether we are utilizing 12-Step principles or processing trauma through EMDR, my goal is to provide a constructive, non-judgmental space where you can find a concrete path forward. I hold an MS in Counseling Mental Health and am dually licensed as a Professional Counselor (LPC) and Addiction Counselor (LCDC) to ensure you receive the most comprehensive support possible."

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Lubbock

Searching for addiction therapists in Lubbock starts with finding someone whose experience matches the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and changes in family or relationship patterns. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people also work with a psychiatrist as part of their care team.

Lubbock has local therapy options, and virtual appointments can make it easier to compare therapists beyond the offices closest to you. Recovery can have different phases, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and has experience with harm reduction frameworks. You may also want to compare appointment availability, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist talks about addiction care, collaboration, and what to expect in sessions.

Therapy in Lubbock can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you begin. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details. From there, you can browse therapists, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
