More about Lowell

  • LCSW

Hi, and welcome to BetterHelp. My name is Lowell, and I am glad you found me. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker here in Florida, and I have over 20 years of experience in working in Community Behavioral Health settings, Correctional settings, Sexual Perpetrator settings, Geriatric settings, and in Private Practice. Insofar as my strengths are concerned, it is difficult to categorize, since I prefer to utilize a combination of various therapies in what I term, "Common Sense Therapy". if you are looking for someone who is down-to-earth, yet professional; open-minded, yet principled; compassionate/empathic, yet, direct; and someone with many life experiences, yet with a deep spiritual belief, then I just may be the therapist you are looking for. My education consists of a Bachelors Degree in Education from Illinois State University, and a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois, Champaign/Urbana. My primary therapeutic interests lie in the areas of Couple Counseling, Relationship Conflicts, Transitions in Life, Sexual Abuse/Trauma, Gender Dysphoria, Anger Management, and Dissociation. It is a privilege to serve you in the hopes of assisting you in more fully enjoying the rest of your life on this planet. Feel free to contact me at your convenience, and I will always attempt to get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for choosing BetterHelp.

About online counseling

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.

Lowell is such an easy person to talk to, I didn’t expect that I’ll be able to open up to him with my life so soon. I appreciate his methods and the recommendations he has been giving me so far.

Reviewed September 2021

Lowell is very kind, knowledgeable with a nice touch of directness. He will guide, support and encourage you through the process. I felt super relaxed to be vulnerable and to open up with Lowell. He is very experienced in his field, and that's why he doesn't shy away from trauma based topics. Lowell is an anchor with heavy topics, and with love he points you to the direction of healing. I absolutely recommend the sessions with him. Also, I first requested a woman, and connected to Lowell was a leap of faith for me, but real soon I realized this connection was a real blessing!

Reviewed June 2021

I've had a number of counsellors, both face-to-face and online, and Lowell has helped me make the most progress. He is empathetic and supportive, but he's direct in getting to the heart of the issues. He helped me to find firm footing to move forward with my issues. I definitely recommend him as a counsellor.

Reviewed April 2022

We worked together for about 2 months, weekly calls. He is a very competent, highly adjustable therapist that not only helped me to use my awareness and coaching skills on myself but contributed with great questions, stories from life, metaphors, thought-provoking books which I read. We went through a rough patch as well almost a breaking point for the therapist-client relation but that turned out to be the sign that we are onto something. Some deeply rooted issues came up and began to resolve themselves when we addressed them. Like co-dependence, trauma brain, perfectionism, etc. Lots of things were easing and dissolving as we approach them and shed the light on those. I feel like I eventually arrived to the clarity of what was my problem and better so - what is the way forward for me. That wouldn't have been possible without our work together. After nearly 2 months of weekly calls with Lowell, I am ready to finish the therapy and stand on my own feet enabled and equipped in all I need to self-regulate my negative states and become the best version of myself. Thanks, Lowell. Great work.

Lowel , unlike the last 3 therapists I've tried, is actually on time and focused on our sessions. With his background I respect his opinions and am more likely to listen to his advice. The advice I've been given has already worked for me. Lowel has offered alternatives to our current arrangement to help with my wife in a couples therapy and this flexibility is great.

Lowell is done to earth, informative, funny, fun, and most importantly direct. He wants to listen, help, and encourage a change in behavior to benefit me.

Lowell is so easy to talk to and our sessions always leave me in a great mood. He's lighthearted but wise and helps put things into perspective.

Really believe it was destiny meeting Lowell here on BetterHelp and I say that because of how much he has helped me understand myself,my relationships and improve my life. He is kind, caring, engaging, an amazing listener that is so generous in his help and guidance. He gets me to really think hard about situations and to reflect and to look at ways to improve. It has been super liberating to be able to speak truthfully about my thoughts, fears and flaws - and Lowell has shown me how much my upbringing has so much to do with it all. As he calls it, I just need 'to have new tools for my toolbox' and implement new strategies, and thought processes to break the cycle and heal. I cannot thank Lowell enough for everything he has thought me - I really see him as a friend and I feel so lucky to have had this time with him because I have grown so much (I feel 10feet tall after our sessions!) because of him. There is more inner work to be done but after 2 months, I feel more at peace than ever before.

I have only been working with Lowell for the last month. But, it's the first time in my life that I feel like someone truly cares about me and what I have gone through.
