Lynne Newman M.P.S. Masters of Professional Studies - Humanistic Psychology

Lynne Newman Quick Facts

My name is Lynne Newman, a 59 year old woman, who has been on a healing, spiritual journey which has led me to this wonderful place. I now do only what my heart and soul tell me to do; it is no longer acceptable to do "what I have to do" simply to please others.

Earlier in life I could not see the colors of the world. In the past 13 years, my life changed as much as any life could; I've gotten divorced,  things that kept me in pain for many years, completed my A.A.S., B.A. in counseling and my Master's degrees in Humanistic Psychology/Counseling. I am a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, and have received training in Thought Field Therapy & EFT, which are meridian based healing modalities. I've volunteered as an advocate for rape and incest Survivors a number of years, and have facilitated groups for survivors.  I accompanied them to hospitals, and police stations to support them through the grueling examination procedure, and  coordinated a two day conference for survivors and professionals where I facilitated a Survivor's Speakout against Incest and Sexual Abuse.

In 1997, I opened my private counseling and healing practice where I specialize in Women's Issues, Spiritual Counseling and incorporate Reiki, other Energy Healing techniques, and Guided Imagery to help people heal from emotional, spiritual, mental and physical pain. I teach classes in energy healing, spiritual development, and facilitate a women's Circle of Light Healing and Meditation group.

My guided imagery cd's are now produced and marketed by HealthJourneys.com and take the listener on healing spiritual journeys.

I feel that I have found my life's work......it's where my heart is. In 2002, I took a "leap of Faith" and quit my full time job to do what I love full time. My private practice is located at 45 Dolson Avenue, Middletown, New York, (845) 342-2356.  My dream of creating a healing space named Spirit Heart has come true.

I'm also a proud mother of two sons, each of them with unique talents, each of them doing their own part to create a better world. They have enriched my life and taught me the depth of mother-love and my life is better because they are in it! I am blessed to be a mother in law to two beautiful young women, and a grandma of two children as well.

I am a poet, and love writing short stories as well. I spend as much time as possible outdoors and delight in the way the sun sparkles on the water, the roar of the ocean, the autumn leaves against a bright blue sky, and the way the wind blows through my hair. Have you ever sat for a few hours and watched a water lily go from closed-tight bud to fully opened blossom? Have you seen the golden-heart center, and rejoiced in your unfolding?

Open Heart

Soft pink blossoms, floating on the murky pond,
Petals tightly closed against the morning chill:
Sun rises, and I watch, with wonder,
Your unfolding in the golden light.

Petals, now outstretched, curve softly
toward the sky,
Poised like the loving hands of God,
Cradling my now-open heart,
In palms of sea-shell pink.
