Lowell Wallace
Hello, my name is Lowell Wallace and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work in 2013 and went on to earn my LCSW in 2017. I have expertise in working with individuals and families with co-occurring substance abuse and other counseling issues. I also have expertise in providing counseling to individuals with mood and anxiety disorders, relationship issues, family conflict, trauma, ADHD, and much more. I utilize a client-centered approach and realize clients are the experts on their own lives. I work collaboratively with my clients in setting and reaching their goals that will ultimately benefit their lives. Some of my most used clinical approaches are cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I enjoy these approaches because it allows me to help my clients gain insight into their core beliefs and how these translate into their thoughts and ultimately their behavior. I believe everyone has inherent strengths and abilities to face and overcome adversity and become more empowered and all they need is some assistance to realize their solution lies within themselves. I truly enjoy working with others and assisting them in becoming better version of themselves.

I believe that that the value of therapy is having an objective person's eyes and ears on your struggles and that the process can help you move forward when you are feeling "stuck." Identifying your strengths and ideal solutions are part of a treatment plan that helps us stay focused and determine how effective therapy is in your life. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy mode I use to discover what thoughts, feelings and belief systems are at play in feeling "stuck," and produces new ideas about approaching your issues. I am now very excited about implementing the use of a fairly new mode of therapy known as "ACT" that stands for "Acceptance and Commitment Therapy". People walk through this self-discovery process not because it's easy, but to feel better, lighter and more effective in navigating their lives. For the best therapeutic outcome, there needs to be trust and respect between the client and the therapist. I encourage any and all questions to see if we could be a good fit! I have recently decided to add to my bio by specifically letting potential clients know that most of my professional career as a therapist has been in working with sex offenders, their families and victims, as well as having expertise in domestic violence issues. Extreme/ toxic emotional abuse issues are becoming very common and there are now clearly defined cycles of those types of abuse. There seems to be a growing need for attention to these specific problems and a need for a professional who has a lot of experience in addressing these issues. It should also be noted that if someone is in need of sex offender therapy, they must have successfully completed a legally recognized program first. In my private time I enjoy growing organic gardens and cooking with the results, playing outdoors in every season- skiing, camping, hiking, kayaking, and love playing and hiking with my new dog (rescue), Blue. I look forward to meeting you and helping you to discover healthier and more authentic ways of relating to people, but especially ourselves.

Christopher "Chris" Driessen
I’m a therapist who deeply believes in the power of change. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people as they face challenges, grow, and find new ways of moving forward, and I don’t take that lightly. Those moments of growth, big or small, feel sacred to me. I love working with adults and teens who struggle with anxiety and everyday challenges. My goal is to offer more than just insight; I want to give people tools they can actually use and to work myself out of a job. For most, therapy shouldn't last forever. My own struggles have helped me connect more deeply with the people I work with and given me a clearer sense of how meaningful and tough real change can be. Those experiences have shaped how I show up in the room, with compassion, curiosity, and a practical mindset. I focus on long-term growth, helping clients build confidence, resilience, and self-trust. Clients often tell me they feel calm, safe, understood, and not judged in sessions. I think that kind of connection is what makes therapy work. When people feel seen and valued, real change becomes possible. I believe in your ability to change, I’m honored to be here.
