About Rebecca
'Relationships are integral to being human.'
Rebecca Lowe
We need them, we thrive on them and we can suffer deeply from them. I’ve been fascinated with how we relate to each other and the human condition for almost 25 years. I’ve studied psychology, child development, couple and family relationships, communication, trauma, attachment, mindfulness and social work practices.
I’m now in private practice, after over a decade working for one of Australias’ leading national relationship organisations. During this time I undertook roles such as: Convenor for two national networks, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Project Worker, Relationship Education Coordinator, Child Consultant, Senior Couple and Family Therapist and acted at times in Manager and Director roles.
Flexible and experiential therapy available including Animal Inclusive and Walk and Talk Therapy
The Top End has been my home for over 35 years and I have lived and worked in Darwin for over 20 years. It has been and continues to be, a privilege to be invited into the depths of peoples’ lives. I have immensely valued journeying along with many who have grappled with family and domestic violence, family separation, mental health and with adult survivors of institutional child sexual abuse.
Whether to heal a broken heart, get support for depression or anxiety, work on being a mindful parent, talk through workplace conflict, consider options where there is violence, work through infidelity, increase communication and connection as a couple, heal from past abuse or try and find meaning and direction in your life; I aim to be compassionate, non-judgemental, reflective and assist you to increase your own understanding of yourself.
With increased self awareness, so too comes increased options for deeper relationships with everything around us; for healing, compassion, growth and truly living a meaningful life.

Pamela Trotman – Mental Health Accredited Social Worker, Adjunct
Professor CDU, AASW Fellow & author - over 55 years’ experience.
Trauma recovery & managing personal/professional stressors/crises.
Pamela is a long-term NT resident of 35 years with over 55 years’ experience across a range of practice contexts, first in metropolitan and regional NSW then, since 1989 the NT. Since the early 2000s her focus has been ‘trauma recovery’ which she describes as ‘rebuilding one’s life and reclaiming self’ following catastrophic events. Pamela adopts a variety of therapeutic approaches gained from extensive post-graduation training which she combines with equally extensive lived experience in her work with clients in their efforts to achieve wellbeing and emotional-social health. Clients include individuals, couples and families who have been impacted by catastrophic events.
A second feature of Pamela’s work is her interest in assisting clients to ‘navigate’ challenging emotional and social contexts (personal and professional) and life crises so their mental health or sense of self is not undermined. Each approach requires the client to actively invest in the process with Pamela’s support and guidance.
