Laurie W. Howell, LMFT is the owner and therapist at Newcastle Family Therapy, PLLC. Laurie has over 19 years of post-graduate experience providing family therapy. Laurie is a compassionate, strength-based clinician who seeks to find the most change from within the client's own reservoirs of strength and interests.
The first few sessions of therapy are considered assessment. During this process paperwork is completed, I gather information from everyone involved, and I recommend what services are indicated. If treatment here is a great fit we would also discuss goals for treatment and what steps would be involved in a successful outcome.

In addition, I really value that she remembers details from my story and past sessions - - her ability to listen
