Karen Newcomb
Karen Newcomb is in Private Practice as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Castro Valley and San Rafael, CA. After her husband’s death from cancer in 2007 and her own treatment of breast cancer in 2011, she ferociously immersed herself in the use of writing tools to heal and navigate life’s inevitable twists and turns. Karen presently facilitates cancer support groups, including writing groups, throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Write Through It—The Writing For Healing Project was created in 2012 and is presently recruiting for a research project in San Rafael. She is humbled and moved every day by the power of the pen-- especially by those who have said, “…but, I’m not a writer”.
