About Chandra

Chandra Lowe is a licensed social worker (LMSW) with two decades of counseling experience focused on family life and relationships.

Background and approach

She works from a warm, client-centered stance that emphasizes clients' strengths and practical goal setting, helping people untangle communication problems, parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, and issues related to adoption and foster care. Her background includes supporting clients through divorce and separation, fertility-related stress, anger, trauma and abuse, and work-life or career concerns.

Chandra blends interactive, solution-oriented methods with evidence-based techniques to help clients build healthier boundaries, improve self-esteem, and resolve ongoing family conflicts. She often incorporates Internal Family Systems ideas along with CBT and DBT-informed skills to address thoughts, emotions, and relational patterns.

With a calm, compassionate style, she aims to make conversations approachable while guiding clients toward meaningful change. Based in Michigan, Chandra maintains daytime availability that can shift as her schedule changes.

She invites prospective clients to review her informed consent and the practice details, and to reach out with questions as a first step toward scheduling when her openings fit a client's timetable.

Integrating Therapeutic Approaches in Online Care

Chandra draws on Internal Family Systems to help clients notice and compassionately relate to different parts of themselves, which can be useful for addressing internal conflicts, trauma responses, and relationship patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where the client's goals and values guide the work, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to stress or communication breakdowns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative step in therapy. Chandra partners with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so that therapy feels personally relevant and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video call, telephone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for people with busy schedules or geographic constraints. These formats allow ongoing support for scheduling convenience and make it possible to use therapeutic tools and skill practice between sessions while maintaining regular contact with a licensed professional.
