Client Success Stories

"Jussi is an incredible therapist who is keenly intuitive and honoring of his client’s process. I trust him implicitly and highly recommend him for healing and transformation of any kind."

Karen Mehringer

Andrea is a special soul.  Her strength is her heart and passion to help people navigate life’s struggles. She’s the first person I turn to if I need someone to talk to about something that’s troubling me. She’s a great listener and has a way of helping me navigate an issue until I find my own answer.

Michelle Adams

I highly recommend Anne.  We worked together at Sharp’s Trauma program, and I appreciate how she fosters a non-judgmental sense of safety and how her approach is tailored to each individual’s unique needs.  With her energy, expertise and compassionate demeanor, Anne effectively helps clients achieve greater peace, enhance their relationships and grow their sense of self.

    Yes. We offer afternoon and evening availability to fit your schedule.
  • How does insurance work with New Growth Counseling?
    Many people have insurance plans that reimburse them for payments made to out-of-network providers – New Growth is an out-of-network provider. New Growth does not accept insurance, does not bill insurance companies, nor file claims. If you decide to see one of ur therapists, you pay the fee discussed at the beginning of therapy and seek reimbursement by filing a claim directly with your insurance company. We provide a monthly “super bill” that has the necessary information for you to complete your claim.
  • What are the steps?
    Explain that you wish to see an out-of-network mental health therapist. Ask “Will my plan reimburse me directly for payments I make to the out-of-network mental health therapist?” Most plans cover individual therapy (CPT code 90834), but some may exclude couples or family counseling. If you are seeking either, ask specifically “will you reimburse for CPT codes 90846 and 90847?” Ask “Do I have to meet a deductible before reimbursement begins?” Ask “How do I get you to reimburse me personally? I want to be sure you do not send the check to the provider – how do I complete the forms to insure that you send the check to me? Discuss what you’ve learned with your therapist.
  • What about Medicare?
    New Growth Counseling does not accept Medicare or MediCal. If you have supplemental ‘gap’ insurance for your Medicare, you still cannot get reimbursed. The laws have recently changed and many Medicare recipients can now see MFTs for services. However, New Growth is not a Medicare Provider. If you believe you can file such a claim, we would not be able to work with you.
