Women, Marriage & Addiction

A growing portion of Dr. Newman's client base are married women in their 30s or 40s, most of whom have at least two children. These women live in a broken marriage or relationship with men who are sex addicts, and they feel the heartache of betrayal and rejection. They often feel depressed, overwhelmed, and face a tough reality: They will never trust again. Many are struggling to save their marriages. Others are wondering what's best and why. They come to HHTC to explore the answers, share the pain, face their wounds and travel a New Path that helps them break out of dysfunctional relationships, allows boundaries and helps them make positive decisions.

Women also counsel with Dr. Newman on a number of issues that aren't addiction related. Issues range from relational issues and adjustments to a new life phase, from rearing young children to facing 'empty nest syndrome. They may have suffered the loss of a spouse, parent or child, or simply face the "Who Am I, What Am I" questions of middle age.  Dr. Newman counsels women and their familes through numerous issues that manifest sadness, depression, anxiety and anger.

A Heart For Families, Kids & Special Needs

HHTC believes in the family. This unit is the foundation for personal growth and success, yet no family is perfect. Dr. Newman's imperative is to help build family units by counseling with an entire family, couples and/or individuals. She is adept at working with teens, and even children as young as 3 years old. She also has a heart for special-needs children and their families.  Dr. Newman's specialty is to diagnose and treat children with learning and neurological disorders. She helps children and adolescent face some of life’s toughest obstacles, such as divorce, death, sexual abuse, rejection and loneliness.

When it comes to a child with special needs, the pressure mounts for parents, siblings, extended family--even schools, teachers and more. Dr. Newman has a heart for these families, and provides constructive and creative counseling sessions designed to build a child's development while expanding understanding among family members. Dr. Newman often works with children facing A.D.D. Tourette's Syndrome and more.

Understanding the Pressures of Ministry

Ministries and missions are abundant, essential and largely prosperous in the proclamation of truth. They are also often fraught with pressures and problems that are spiritual, emotional, financial--and individual. "Men and women in ministry experience the greatest of joys and the greatest of sorrows," said Dr.  Newman. "Christian ministry isn't all roses for any man or woman. I have an uncanny understanding of the highs and lows, and how to help navigate through them."

Dr. Newman is a ministry support specialist. As the wife of a minister and the daughter of a minister, she understands the ministry world, the unrealistic expectations and the disappointment one often feels. She works with families, ministers, minister's wives and children, giving them all a "safe haven" to express their hearts, feelings, victories and struggles. HHTC provides a confidential safe haven to help them work through issues and heal from past or present hurts that manifest themselves during ministry.
