Linda Newton, LCSW, LCSW, CSW

Linda Newton, LCSW, CSW, is a Colorado-based clinician with 25 years of experience helping people navigate trauma, addiction, relationship strain, and co-occurring mental health concerns. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and CSW indicates an additional social work credential; together these reflect her training to provide clinical assessment and therapy. Over the course of her career she has worked in multiple settings with veterans who experience chronic, complex post-traumatic stress, including both combat-related trauma and military sexual trauma, and with individuals and families impacted by substance use and other co-morbid conditions.

She was part of a team that focused on trauma resulting from military sexual assault and has developed psychoeducational curriculum about how PTSD can affect daily life, self-esteem, and patterns of drug and alcohol use. Her strongest clinical expertise centers on trauma with co-occurring diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, and on related concerns including relationship problems, family of origin issues, shame and guilt, and religious or moral conflict.

Linda also addresses a broad range of issues including anger, stress, abandonment, communication and control problems, fertility and life-purpose questions, kink and alternative sex culture, veteran and armed forces issues, and post-traumatic stress. She invites prospective clients to schedule an appointment and will respond within 24 to 48 business hours.
