For a new player, here is the best advice I can think of:

Pick a passive skill, for a new player, I would recommend a defensive passive. There's a rundown of defensive passives in a sticky I believe, but my recommendation for a new player would be Regeneration. Defiance, Invulnerability, and Lightning Reflexes are also really good, but in the end, it's your character to play. Then superstat based on your passive (most passives are connected with a stat for scaling purposes).

Regeneration (supernatural) - scales with Recovery
Defiance (Might) - scales with Constitution
Invulnerability (Power Armor) - scales with Strength
Lightning Reflexes (Martial melee) - scales with Dexterity

Regeneration shines in the early levels, and really is kind of like a defensive passive for dummies....because you can make tons of mistakes and still roll through the content.

I don't know much about the Telepathy/TK trees, but a defensive passive will be the most painless route to 40.

Ok, I think I messed it up in my first post.

Telepathic Reverberation is an automatic skill, but it is not a "passive power"

Your passive power is the box that sits above your 2 rows of powers on your character interface screen on the right side (left side is all your costume/build options) This spot is reserved for an actual power that can be ranked (automatic powers like all the Reverberations cannot be ranked).

At level 8, all of those defensive passives I listed above will open for your character no matter what power choices you have. You should grab one asap.
