The Newport Practice

Discreet care in the heart of Newport.

Nonie Griscom, LICSW, ACSW, sees clients at her private office at 130 Bellevue Avenue in Newport. It is a quiet, boutique practice by design: a small number of clients, complete confidentiality, and a therapist you can actually reach.

For more than two decades Nonie has helped people move through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship strain and the pressures that come with a demanding life. Clients come from Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, Jamestown and across Aquidneck Island — and from further afield for her Bioregulation Therapy (BRT).

The Newport office is also home to the practice's private BRT room, where sessions take place in calm, comfortable surroundings.

What Nonie Helps With

For the things that weigh on a full life.

People seek out a therapist in Newport for many reasons. Some are navigating a specific crisis — a loss, a diagnosis, a separation. Others carry a quieter, longer-standing weight: persistent anxiety, low mood, the sense of being stuck, or patterns in relationships that keep repeating.

Nonie's work is integrative and relational. Rather than applying one method to everyone, she listens for what will actually help and draws on talk therapy and Bioregulation Therapy — alone or together — to address both mind and body.

Anxiety & stress

Worry, panic, sleeplessness and the strain of responsibility.

Depression & low mood

Understanding what lies underneath, and building lasting change.

Trauma & grief

Gentle, paced work at a speed that feels safe.

Couples & relationships

Communication, trust, transitions and conflict.

Teens & students

Including New England boarding-school students and their families.

Life transitions

Retirement, relocation, empty nest, illness, and change of every kind.
