About the Author
ITA DOWLER, LCSW, Psy.D
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 35 years of experience in psychotherapy. My approach is grounded in clinical training and enriched by continued education, personal exploration, and a passion for integrative health. I regularly attend seminars, study emerging research, and apply mind-body techniques both for myself and my clients.
