Lee Lowe

Lee Lowe is an integrative counsellor and is registered with the BACP. She works within The Awareness Centre’s low-cost counselling service. Lee is currently working towards an advanced diploma in Integrative Counselling.

Lee strives to create a space where the client can be truly seen and heard in a safe environment. She draws upon many modalities which are tailored to the client in the here and now. CBT to help clients understand and change unhelpful patterns in their thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Making these thoughts visible the client can work with them rather than be controlled by them. She also uses Transactional Analysis as a way of highlighting the patterns and roles we play in relationships making them easier to manage in a healthier way. Other techniques used include mindfulness which can help reduce stress, manage anxiety, improve mood, reduce depression and enhance emotional regulation. As Lee is currently undertaking a diploma her methods are always being added to allowing her to use the most current and useful modalities that apply to the client in any given moment. This gives both Lee and the client a huge resource to draw on.

Lee’s background is in film. This has given her an insight into a fast paced world in which burn out, anxiety and stress thrive leading to damaging coping strategies. She seeks to understand the cause of these issues and help put better coping mechanisms in place helping to manage the chaos. She also has a special interest in anxiety, depression, eating disorders and self harm.
