I offer psychotherapy and psychoanalysis to individuals and groups in a positive, safe, non-judgmental environment. My goal is to provide the right balance of support and challenge to help each client work, play and love to the fullest of his or her potential. I frequently work with clients who have experienced early wounding as well as those having difficulty with transitions in relationships, aging, loss, or end of life. I enjoy work with artists seeking to free creative energy. I see each client as unique and our work together as an exploration of what is possible, desirable and achievable.

I believe that life is a journey and that we aren't meant to travel alone. Sometimes it's helpful to have a person to travel the path with you, to shine light in the dark places. Engaging in counseling is one way in which to get support with your struggles. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, school, issues of faith, addictions or any other disruption to your life, I would love to get to know you and to help shine light in the dark places.

These days, there is pervasive anxiety about many things. Certainly, at present, the pandemic leaves us uncertain, depressed, confused and fearful. When the pandemic passes, which it inevitably will, what will your “return to normal” actually mean in terms of moving forward? We can help you formulate a plan for a grounded, fulfilling, positive life, step-by-step.  Our goal-based structured therapy will help you develop psychological tools for success. With a trauma-informed perspective, we specialize in using Narrative Therapy, which helps us help you look at your life in increments so that you can formulate attainable goals.

I work with individuals and couples to create positive changes in their lives. This includes those struggling in areas such as self-esteem, intimacy, addressing emotional needs, healing from past hurts/trauma, a history of neglect or abuse, or challenges regarding gender and sexuality. I work with couples, straight/lesbian/gay, who are working on their relationship, whether as a result of an affair, or realizing differences that keep them from being close. My research focuses on men and the effects of expectations on men’s lives. Pursuing therapy represents a longing to heal. My work is about supporting that process.

Life can be difficult at times, sometimes overwhelming. We may not trust ourselves to walk the path that is best for us, second-guessing and blocking our innate knowing of what is right and wrong. I work with adults, children and couples, providing a safe environment of warmth and unconditional positive regard, so that each person can have the space to discover who he or she is and what steps are needed to better manage conflicts. I work with those suffering from low self-esteem, trauma, relational and transition issues, chronic pain and addiction.

In my practice, I try to help people improve their lives by looking at their relationships. I believe that the ways of relating to others that we learn early in our lives can sometimes prevent us from reaching our potential in current relationships and in creative or occupational endeavors. I help my clients to examine and ultimately change their ways of relating so that they are less depressed and anxious and so that they are more satisfied in their lives.

I am dedicated to compassionately alleviating suffering so that you can recover your most grounded, confident, and healthy self. Feeling greater ease in life, career, and relationships is attainable. Chronic stress, difficult relationships, loss, systemic oppression, trauma, and abuse can lead to feelings of anxiety and depression. Therapy heals by reducing self-doubt, enhancing insight, and improving coping strategies in a safe and non-judgmental space for reflection and growth. Embracing true self-worth, wholeness, and a sense of purpose through individual, couples, or career clarification across the lifespan is the ultimate goal.

I believe every individual has insight, wisdom and a unique set of personal strengths to resolve their challenges and alleviate their suffering. By creating a warm, safe and nurturing environment, you and I can work together to find solutions and break through painful or difficult life challenges and transitions. I specialize in working with anxiety disorders, depression, and other mood disorders. I also specialize in maternal mental health, including perinatal mood disorders, grief, loss, and infertility.

Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates is a group psychology practice where experienced psychologists have been offering therapy and assessment services in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas for over 25 years. The therapists at Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates have differing educational backgrounds and therapeutic styles, but the common theme is that we are all focused on heightening each client's overall happiness. We see the pain caused by depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship turmoil as an opportunity for growth and change.

You don't have to suffer alone. There is help. We can work together so that you experience a more fulfilled life. I work with clients on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, spiritual issues, and loss and grief. I can also help clients struggling with trauma, ADHD, and sleep difficulties. Primarily I use a psychodynamic perspective, appreciating the underlying causes to the difficulties we face. I also integrate techniques from other approaches, such as gestalt, emotion-focused therapy, short-term psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy, depending on the client's unique problems and goals.

This journey of life can sometimes be trying, difficult, and uncomfortable, but I believe that by meeting clients where they are and working together, we can create steps in a journey which will lead to a brighter future. I look forward to working with you to untangle and pull strings from the past, create meaning in the present and make space for healing in the future

Whether moving from one life phase to another or one culture to another, learning new roles can be difficult and lonely. It can feel like nobody really understands what you're going through. You want more from your future but you aren't sure where to start. You feel like you're facing your problems alone and like you have no place. You're nervous. You feel like an outsider. Your world has been shaken and you don't know how to survive in this one. You just want some peace- where you can be yourself, Wherever that is.

You're a successful person, yet you feel like there is something missing. You're in a holding pattern of conflict and negativity with yourself and others. What you really want is the sense of calmness that comes with confidence. Instead, you're constantly frustrated and exhausted. You are ready for a transformation! Together, we can work to break negative cycles, find the skills to express, and take control back of your life! Or, maybe you're here for your child or teen? You see them struggling. They can't find the words to express to you their pain, but you see it in their behaviors. Both of you feel stuck. Gain direction with us!

With 40 years of experience, I work with individuals and couples, straight and gay, African Americans, Caucasians and other racial and ethnic groups as well as other therapists helping with their unique life challenges. I also work with those having chronic illness and cancer. Challenge and loss are inevitable-- whether they be associated with love, family, health or trust or over how we hoped our life would turn out. Living well means learning a repertoire to deal with challenges so we don't remain stuck, angry or depressed.

People come to see me because they have reached a point in their lives where something needs to change. This may be a decreased experience of happiness and fulfillment, repetitive patterns of destructive behavior, a general sense of agitation and frustration, diminishing relationships with loved ones, a desire to understand yourself more clearly, or something else entirely. I will help you examine what is working well in your life and what is hindering your journey towards health and happiness.

Why seek psychotherapy? Are you feeling uncomfortable in your relationships, misunderstood, overwhelmed, helpless, depressed, or anxious, and unable to fulfill your needs and desires? I have spent many years assisting people grow and make emotional changes that help them feel more buoyant, successful and expansive in all aspects of their lives. I aim to create an environment that is nurturing, tender, safe and conducive to the exploration of your wishes, resources, disappointments and fears. My goal is to attend to the complexity of a person's experience, offering you the time and space to become known contentedly to yourself and others.

I strongly believe that engaging in the the therapeutic process can be one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. My primary aim as a therapist is to help each individual I work with lead their best life in whatever form that takes. I use an integrative approach drawing from a relational framework, incorporating components of cognitive-behavioral therapy, strength-based and solution-focused techniques.

I believe most people benefit from a therapist who can share an understanding of their situation or relationship, while also providing a new perspective and feedback on what is getting in their way. Whether you want to take better care of yourself or your relationship with an important person, or you want to address a big stressor, I can help you feel more self-assured and make constructive changes.
