Licensed clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist, Dr. Newman, specializes in traumatic brain injury, complex medical conditions, developmental abnormalities of childhood, mast cell disorders, connective tissue disease, integrative health, and neurotherapy. He treats a variety of psychological conditions and is especially experienced in treating concussions and brain injuries through the use of EEG with digital analysis (“brain mapping”) and biofeedback (neurofeedback), photobiomodulation, diet and nutrition, as well as other naturalistic methods.

A leader in his field, he serves as the Director of The Neuroscience Team, a multi-disciplinary facility in Towson, Maryland, where a multitude of complicated medical and psychiatric conditions are treated through progressive diagnostics and treatment methods. Within the practice, he and his staff strive to understand in depth the struggles of his patients, and to improve their lives by providing them with the very best of what neuropsychology and integrative health can offer. 

Originally from South Africa, Dr. Newman studied at The Graduate School and University Center of the City University of New York. He then went on to attend the University of New Orleans, earning his Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in 1995. 

Before long, the doctor became board-certified by the American Board of Disability Analysts (ABDA) and the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). 

A believer in the power of mind over body and the infinite capacity of humans to overcome their difficulties, Dr. Newman has confidence that individuals can turn lives of struggle into stories of triumph. Among his many accomplishments, he has authored books that empower the individual to reduce depression, eliminate anxiety, and master organizational skills and executive functions.

Clinical psychology is a broad branch of psychology that focuses on diagnosing and treating mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. Some of the more common disorders that might be treated include learning disabilities, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. Clinical psychologists meet with patients to identify problems – emotional, mental, and behavioral – in their lives. Through observation, interviews, and tests, they aim to diagnose any existing or potential disorders. 

Neuropsychology focuses on identifying the neuro-anatomical sources in the brain of cognitive, emotional, or behavioral function. As such, it can identify the course of change in function that follows a neurological trauma or condition. The neuropsychologist would generally seek natural and non-invasive ways to foster recovery and improvement, or even peak performance, in those who are struggling with effects on their performance.
