Dr. Newcomb’s primary areas of professional interest include treatment of childhood disorders, behavioral disorders, behavioral planning, parenting training, couples/family therapy, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. Her integrative therapeutic approach combines behaviorism, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, solution focused, and family therapies. In treatment, the focus is on symptom reduction and the development of new effective coping strategies. She believes this is best achieved by helping clients’ gain an enhanced understanding of how they are both affected by and interact with the environment around them. She believes no two clients are the same and that treatment style and intervention strategies must be tailored to the individual’s needs. Dr. Newcomb’s goal is to create a safe, open, and non-judgmental environment for individuals to feel comfortable expressing themselves and to work through difficult and complex issues.
