Dr. Newsom helps you break patterns that no longer serve you.
He helps clients shift out of survival mode, reconnect with their values, and create a life that feels purposeful again — not just endured. His clients have described him as, "steady, clarifying, and transformational."
Dr. Newsom is a licensed clinical psychologist in New York, New Jersey, and North Carolina, trained in some of the most rigorous clinical settings in the country, including a Harvard-affiliated predoctoral internship. He is currently an Assistant Professor at Rutgers University, where he teaches, supervises clinicians, and directs the evidence-based clinical psychology programming for the New Jersey VA. Despite these accomplishments, his clients never find him intimidating, and often comment on his penchant for infusing everyday struggles with a dash of humor and relatability.
His work is grounded in evidence-based treatment, blending ACT, DBT, and CBT to help clients heal quickly and deeply. He specializes in:
Trauma + complex emotional experiences
Relationship conflict and communication breakdowns
Anxiety, depression, and chronic self-doubt
Questions of identity, meaning, and direction
Dr. Newsom is especially attuned to clients who are navigating intense relationships — with partners, families, friends, colleagues, or themselves. If you are in a moment of transition, reckoning, or reinvention, you’ll find a skilled guide in Dr. Newsom.
Dr. Newsom completed his Ph.D. at Marquette University, trained at The Medical College of Wisconsin and Harvard, and has held clinical positions at Columbia University and Rutgers. Outside the office, you might find him playing guitar, running, cycling, or laughing with his family — a reminder that healing is not just possible, but worth pursuing.
