Just a cool trick for this specific section that may work for you:
Close the door immediately and expend some resources just to kill the first beetle when inside the Newton building.
To make this work, you will need a pistol that you can effectively shoot with 10 AP or less. You also ideally need Aimed Shot (can be done without Aimed Shot but expect extremely boring gameplay and way more resources).
Next, when you get to the door, bank 10AP. After this, you can now open, shoot and close the door. Spend another turn to bank. Repeat as much as you like. You will be able to kill all the psi beetles and never get hit. If requested I can post a video doing this.
If you accidentally get out of combat, just reengage, do a door open and close for 50 AP and just repeat the process starting at banking AP. It's a bit finnicky sometimes because I've had the beetles not see me at all when opening and closing the door.
