She provides evidence-based behavioral health assessments and targeted psychotherapy services for patients who are cared for by the Riley Children’s outpatient and inpatient cardiology teams.

She is passionate about supporting the resilience of young people with heart conditions and their families.

Dr. Tsai Owens earned her Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology, specializing in Clinical Health Psychology, at the University of Kansas.
