I work with people struggling to resolve feelings of anxiety or sadness, or those who find that relationship challenges seem to keep repeating themselves. Together we embark on a journey of discovery to identify and understand the patterns operating below awareness that inform expectations, and color perceptions. Whether working with
adults
, adolescents, couples or caregivers, I believe therapy should be an engaging and dynamic process where all thoughts and feelings are welcomed. Healing occurs when we allow ourselves the freedom to express the scope of our emotions, and my sessions are as likely to include laughter as tears.

heather-newcomb.clientsecure.me I am most easily accessible via email, and would recommend that you send an email to reach me. I have 10 years experience working with those struggling with addiction. This is almost always due to past trauma events that initially lead to substance use. Depression and anxiety are often co-occurring disorders that accompany substance use disorders and can lead to further life disruption. My clients want freedom from the mental heath and substance use disorders that are holding them back from their full potential and reaching their dreams.

It's been said, "The measure of success is not whether you have a tough problem to deal with, but whether it's the same problem you had to deal with last year." -John F. Dulles- Change is a difficult process. Wanting to change on one hand. Knowing we need to change, but also desperately holding on to old thought processes and behaviors on the other hand. We view our role as an agent of change. Our goal is to help clients find the courage to overcome their fears and the knowledge and skills to be able to sustain the changes.
