Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in the state of Virginia and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) certified by the International Association of Trauma Professionals. I also hold a Graduated Certificate from Liberty University in Pastoral Counseling.
My counseling experience includes working with individuals who have experienced a variety of reasons for seeking help to include but not limited to trauma, grief/loss, substance abuse, self-worth/self-esteem issues, stress management, relationship challenges, symptom management, spiritual conflicts, effective/assertive communication, depression and anxiety. Additionally, I have facilitated support and counseling groups for the geriatric population and their adult caregivers.
By offering Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused-Brief Therapy (SFBT), I am able to walk side by side with individuals seeking healing and wellness. Walking side by side means providing a safe environment for you to speak freely while I listen, ask questions, provide feedback and challenge thoughts that may reveal "stuck points", thereby empowering you to make positive change while meeting your treatment goals. I look forward to working with you whether you are seeking Christian counseling or non-faith based counseling.
Additional areas of focus:Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Grief, Anger management, Depression, Coping with life changes, Coaching, Aging and geriatric issues, Caregiver issues and stress, Communication problems, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Life purpose, Obsessions, compulsions, and OCD, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Phobias, Post-traumatic stress, Social anxiety and phobia
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Toy Newcomb. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I am finally at a point where I can say Toy does a good job with me, because I have been working with her for a long time. Like a number of years.

Loved my few sessions with Toy because she was helpful and encouraging. But she unfortunately is very busy and doesn’t respond to messages in a timely manner. She wasn’t responding in a live chat session and so it logged us out in the middle of our session. Finding a new therapist. Disappointed.

Within two weeks going on a thrid, I have a better understanding of my emotional health and some triggers. I have been able to communicate and understand others better. In just a short time, I feel like a different person. Its important to work on our mental health, and I feel just that supported, heard and seeing my own mental health in a better light. I wish I had not waited so long.

Toy has been especially supportive and almost immediately recognized areas that we needed to discuss. Without her help I would have never known and stuck in an endless cycle of looking for answers.

I’ve always been scared to ask for help but after one session with Toy, I’m really looking forward to working with her with help on reaching goals to help my mental health. Life keeps happening & I never dealt with prior issues before others happened so they just piled on top of each other. From the goals we have set in place, I feel like I will be able to have a better chance at battling my anxiety and depression more then I ever have in my life.

She’s been supporting me since November 2019, always challenging me to grow as a child of God, helping me to be at peace with things and knowing God’s got this. Tho I still fail (cuz I be human), I know He’ll prevail. I may not be a fan, but I gotta go with His plan. Things will work out better in the end and my heart He shall mend. If I but let my heart be still and quietly and humbly do His will. Heed His Word as I focus on the beam in my own eye. If I but reorder my longing gaze and up to Him my eyes now raise, through Him I can make changes in my life to make me a better person, mom, and wife.

It is somewhat early in my counseling but, I have so much appreciated Toy getting back to me and she truly seems to understand and she asked me a question that was thought provoking about something I struggle with-gave me a new way of looking at my situation. Thank you, Toy! Looking forward to continuing counseling.

Toy has been absolutely wonderful and helpful for me in my journey through self improvement, thought process change, and the ability to move through my losses. She is a fantastic listener and is so good at showing me how to apply healthy cognitive processes and thought patterns instead of my own unhealthy and sometimes negative thought patterns. She has given me great exercises and worksheets to help me change my unhealthy thought patterns and instead be able to work through what I am thinking and feeling and challenge that against the truth. I'm very thankful that I have worked with Toy and I will definitely plan to reach out to her in the future if and when I need some tune ups! Thank you!!

Dr. Toy Newcomb is emotionally responsive, hands-on, and a great, reflective listener. She is aware of the needs of the individual client and tailors her approach to that individual’s need. She makes therapy much less stressful. Overall, she replies in a very timely manner. The client then does not feel restless waiting for her response.
Thank You!
