Our counselors provide marriage counseling in Milford, CT

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 4 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life's challenges. My clinical focus areas include addiction treatment, OCD, anxiety, and depression, conditions that can feel isolating, but which I've seen clients move through with the right support and consistency. I create a warm, collaborative space where clients feel seen and supported, not judged. My approach is tailored to each person, focusing on strengths, coping skills, and lasting change- not just symptom relief, but a deeper shift in how clients relate to themselves.

I use a person-centered, strengths-based approach to help clients build coping skills and lasting change. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen. As a twin, I bring unique insight to clients navigating twin-related identity and relationship dynamics.

It takes courage to begin therapy, and I believe everyone deserves a space to feel heard, understood, and empowered. In our work together, you can expect guidance, authenticity, and a safe space to grow at your own pace.

My name is Isis Lowhar, LMSW, and I am a social worker and therapist with a Bachelor's degree in Sociology and a Master's degree in Social Work. My experience includes working in both private practice and community-based programs, supporting adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating a wide range of challenges and life experiences. I have supported individuals experiencing trauma, crisis and high-risk situations, relationship and family concerns, and challenges that come with different stages of life. These experiences have given me a broad perspective and a genuine appreciation for each person's unique story.

My approach is warm, compassionate, calm, encouraging, nonjudgmental, and direct. I utilize CBT, DBT, trauma-informed approaches, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and elements of Multidimensional Family Therapy (MDFT). I'm especially passionate about anxiety and self-esteem. I also integrate Christian faith-based practices if desired.

My goal is for you to leave therapy feeling supported, encouraged, empowered, and hopeful. You do not have to figure it all out alone. You deserve a space where your experiences are met with compassion and without judgment. I am honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing and growth. When you're ready, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Anthropology. As a former student-athlete and youth sports coach, I bring a unique perspective to my work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationships, life transitions, and questions of sexual orientation. I help clients better understand their experiences, practice selfcompassion, develop healthy coping strategies, establish boundaries, and build more fulfilling relationships. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, honoring each client’s personalized experiences, strengths, and goals.

I offer a supportive space to explore patterns, understand emotions, and gain insight into the experiences that shape you. Together, we cultivate self-compassion, recognize and build on your personal strengths and interests, and develop healthier coping skills and habits.

Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve a space where you can show up as you are and feel supported. I welcome the opportunity to work alongside you.
