Thomas Newman, LPCC

Thomas Newman is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio with two decades of clinical experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, stress, family concerns, and major life changes. He draws on a lifetime of varied roles - including time as a professor, a French-trained chef and pastry chef, a professional photographer, and roughly a decade working in a church - to bring a broad, humane perspective to therapeutic work. He also speaks from personal experience with divorce and later finding the strengths of marriage, which informs his practical, empathetic approach to relationships and change.

Over the last 20 years, Thomas has specialized in supporting individuals facing mood disorders, panic attacks, caregiving stress, communication struggles, and the emotional complexity of life transitions. His work is grounded in evidence-based methods and aims to help clients rebuild resilience, improve coping skills, and regain a clearer sense of purpose. Thomas emphasizes collaboration - meeting people where they are while guiding them toward measurable improvements in wellbeing.

Clients can expect a nonjudgmental, strengths-focused space in which Thomas uses practical strategies and compassionate listening to address issues such as abandonment, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, forgiveness, and relationship repair. He is committed to helping people reconnect with their resources and to fostering sustainable change over time.
