What I do


Welcome to the Relationships and Psychotherapy Lab (RAP Lab) led by Dr. Jesse Owen, Professor of Counseling Psychology at the University of Denver. Our research seeks to contribute to the enhancement and understanding of couples' relationship functioning, as well as to develop a deeper understanding of the common and specific factors related to therapeutic effectiveness. An underlying assumption of our mission is that we contextualize our work through cross-cultural factors that are inherently interwoven with the lives of individuals, couples, and therapists.
