ALIZAH K. LOWELL
LCSW-R, CEDS
Finding the right therapist is an essential element in the therapeutic process.
I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York and New Jersey. I have been working with individuals, couples, families and groups for over a decade in different settings ranging from non-profit organizations to specialized hospital units. I have expertise and specialize in the treatment of eating disorders and body image disturbance. In my New York City and Northern New Jersey private therapy practice locations, I offer individual psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, as well as couples and family therapy. I also provide supervision and consultation to clinicians in the field.
Education
I received my Bachelor of Science in Liberal Arts with honors from Washington University in St. Louis and my Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University. I completed my postgraduate psychoanalytic training at the William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis and Psychology.

Psychotherapy
Individual Psychotherapy
I see a diverse clientele seeking psychotherapy for a variety of reasons, including:
- Self-exploration and development
- Relationship issues
- Life transitions
- Disordered eating and body image disturbance
- Infertility, reproductive health, perinatal and maternal mental health
- Depression and anxiety
- Workplace or school difficulties
Couples Counseling and Family Therapy
Couples and families can benefit from therapy to develop a better understanding of their dynamics and how they relate to one another, make changes to problematic patterns, work on communication skills, or manage crises and transitions.
Group Work
Groups can be a rich setting to learn about yourself and how you relate with others. They offer a unique opportunity to identify relational patterns and make changes in your life. Contact me to find out more about the groups I am currently facilitating.
Supervision
In addition to my clinical work, I also provide individual and group supervision to clinicians working in various settings.
I am certified through the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (IAEDP) as an approved supervisor for those seeking certification as an eating disorder specialist (CEDS) and serve on the faculty at the William Alanson White Institute as a Supervisor of Psychotherapy. I have extensive experience supervising trainees in different mental health disciplines, as well as therapists in private practice. My goal is to help each therapist I work with build on their own strengths and skills, remove barriers impeding their work and develop their unique style as a clinician.
Consultation & Education
I provide consultation and workshops on topics such as eating disorders, body image, group work, family assessment and family work. Contact me for more information.
