Ariel Lowe, LPC-MHSP

You do not have to live the way you’ve always lived. The suffering does not have to persist. You can choose yourself.

This thing called life offers unexpected obstacles that cause a course change. Therapy enables us to feel empowered to overcome our barriers. We must self-search and manage internal issues to obtain that empowered position.

There is no point to a bandaid approach, so we would work on the deeper issues that cause presenting problems, like unhealthy attachments and trauma. These are the sources of anxious thinking, depression, and addictions.

I hold my LPC-MHSP and have been in the field for 9 years. I see this work through the lens of attachment and parts work (IFS). I believe we can learn to value all parts of ourselves. We get to connect with the one who protects us, the one who tries to get us in trouble and the one who loves us dearly.

I focus on treating: eating disorders, substance abuse, relationship issues (codependency, avoidance, etc.), Narcissism, and women’s issues. I incorporate the knowledge of and wisdom from 12 step programs. I am EMDR trained and have seen and experienced the healing that comes from it.

It can be really scary and hard to find someone safe to talk to about the dark corners. My role is to help you feel safe and trusting to begin shining the flashlight in those corners. Connection and intimacy start within you. I look forward to you meeting yourself again. Thank you for allowing me to explore and discover with you!
