Dr. Christopher A. Lowery, DHSc, CLCP is board-certified, specializing in international telehealth life care planning with a focus on clinical health, rehabilitation counseling, biopsychosocial issues, and global health promotion and prevention issues through the use of holistic evidence-based approaches using a Biopsychosocial Health Consultation Model and the Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™. Dr. Lowery is skilled in the use of targeted plans, assessments, and developing treatments for behavioral health disorders (e.g., anxiety, ADHD, depression, emotional regulation, employment, trauma, conduct disorder, anger, substance use, etc.), medical conditions (e.g., chronic pain, burns, high blood pressure, inflammation, lung diseases, and diabetes, etc.), and health behavior changes (e.g., weight management, informed health decisions, occupational health prevention, physical activity, disparities, preventive nutrition, tobacco cessation, risky sexual activity, accident prevention, etc.). Other services also provided are catastrophic and disability case management, and non-expert (lay) witness or non-testifying expert litigation support regarding associated disabilities and/or health impairments. The Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™ established by Dr. Lowery, is an evidence-informed framework that understands cognitive, emotional, and behavioral traits as existing along a continuum across all individuals. It shifts the focus from fixed diagnostic categories to how traits are expressed and how they impact daily functioning, allowing for more personalized practical, and inclusive approaches to support and well-being. Dr. Lowery holds a board-certification in life care planning as a Certified Life Care Planner (CLCP) from the International Commission on Health Care Certification (ICHCC), which is accredited and recognized by the American National Standards Institute National Accreditation Board (ANAB). This prestigious certification attests to his qualifications and competence in the health care delivery systems. ANAB’s accreditation ensures that the certification process meets rigorous international standards, confirming his aptitude and expertise for his role as a practitioner.

Cedar Rapids is Iowa's second-largest city and a significant manufacturing and technology hub, home to major employers in aerospace (Collins Aerospace), food processing, and financial services, and its mental health landscape reflects the pressures of an industrial economy alongside the resilience of a Midwestern community that has demonstrated significant strength in the face of adversity—including the 2008 Cedar River flood that devastated parts of the city. Mercy Medical Center and UnityPoint Health both provide behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those seeking outpatient counseling. The city's Czech and Slovak heritage is still visible in its culture, and community identity and civic pride are important protective factors for mental health even as the city navigates the transition from its traditional manufacturing base. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, family and relationship stress, and the economic uncertainty that comes with working in industries subject to rapid technological change.
