I am licensed in Pennsylvania with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I do consider myself a person-centered therapist which means I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you and that you also have the answers you need to accomplish your needs and wants, I will help you find them, access them, and appropriate ways of implementing them. I also use CBT as a means of accomplishing needs and wants as I do believe that most problems are thinking problems, which need to be seen from a different perspective. I also utilize motivational interviewing to help those seeking the reasons they want to change and how to use this process to achieve these needs and wants. For those who struggle with purpose, death, and loss I will use existentialism to help those work through those struggles. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shawn Lowry. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Shawn is a stand up guy and really makes you feel comfortable every time you speak with him. Some talks are harder than others I will admit, but that's because he challenges the way you think. Which is exactly what I need. I cannot remember the last time someone challenged my thought processes, and put into perspective that I am shouldering burdens and carrying things with me that I do not need.

Shawn is understanding, and a great listener. He is accommodating when it comes to personal problems and has helped me to understand myself better. I hope I can build more trust with him and one day use what I learn from here to better my life.

Shawn is wonderful and reaches out between sessions if needed. He is very thoughtful and always incredibly responsive even if it means offering me sessions outside of his traditional hours. I can’t say enough about the genuine caring he shows me.

I haven't done the virtual session as of yet, but at the moment in just a few sessions I can say that Shawn is easy to talk to and has some good advice and understanding. Really allows for you to tell your story and help after. This is my first time using a therapist and I am glad I got Shawn because this is a great experience so far.

Shawn has been so understanding of the changes I've been trying to make and really good at challenging me when I need to look at something from a different angle. He has been very validating to make me feel like I'm not crazy with what I've been going through. Super grateful we were matched and highly recommend him to anyone.

He is very helpful and helps get to the root of the issue. I like that he doesn't tell you what is wrong but ask you prompting questions for you to work through and come to the conclusion as to what is wrong.
