Jessica Newman

Jessica Newman is a dedicated Counselor and LMHC who believes that everyone possesses inner wisdom and the potential for a fulfilling life. She recognizes that challenging experiences, whether from the distant or recent past, can obscure this wisdom and may lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and difficulties in relationships. Through a collaborative and integrative approach, she guides her clients in connecting with their inherent strengths, developing practical coping skills, and achieving deep self-understanding and acceptance. This process empowers individuals to break free from self-limiting patterns, enabling them to become the person they aspire to be. Jessica specializes in areas such as trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, particularly within the LGBQ/T communities. Drawing on a rich blend of therapeutic modalities, she utilizes mindfulness-based interventions, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and sensorimotor psychotherapy, along with insight-oriented approaches like psychodynamic and relational therapy. With eight years of experience co-teaching Holistic Theories of Psychotherapy at Lesley University, including six years as an adjunct faculty member, Jessica is highly regarded for her warm, collaborative, and practical approach. Passionate about her work, she invites individuals to explore the transformative journey towards personal growth.
