Lack of communication on the company’s part. First off when you initially establish, you have no choice but to put your card on file. I usually don’t do that because mistakes happen. Well I’ve been going here for a few… months now and just this week, Melody ran my card without COMMUNICATING with me first. $250. Didn’t give me a chance to figure it out just did it before speaking to me. Turns out my husbands insurance is sending out new cards but there have been hiccups with insurance with all of the employees. Anyway, the 250 pulled before our electric bill money did so we were almost left in the dark with TODDLERS. Luckily we were able to borrow money. For a place that is supposed to HELP people, they absolutely lost my trust because this could’ve been worked out, but this woman doesn’t know how to communicate. I work in a doctors office and we verify patients insurance before each visit so if they did the same, this issue would’ve been caught and I wouldn’t have been charged $250 without my knowledge. I was nice at first but I couldn’t handle the way she spoke to me and eventually snapped when she told me she ran my card without my permission.

I wouldn’t go here ever again. I gave this place so many tries. 2 to 3 times they put me down as the wrong patient, had me mixed up with another patient with the same birthday. Left work early just to get there for them… to tell me I didn’t have an appointment when I did. I went to the marriage counselor here as well . she is very snobby condescending acts like a know it all. They never send confirmation emails or phone calls to confirm appointments and then charged me without my knowledge $125. Only they can make mistakes mess up your appointments. I got into a car accident and missed my appointment and then they charged me $125. I’m disputing it with my credit card company. They will not see a dime from me. As the therapist that they hire very mediocre seem very green.

Dr Honickman is an amazing therapist. She is gentle and very knowledgeable in her areas of practice. I did EMDR and the results are amazing. Totally, transformed my anxiety and trauma responses. I can’t praise her… enough. If you’re on the fence about starting counseling, I encourage you to reach out to Dr Honickman. You won’t regret it, and working with her has been life changing!

Growth and Recovery Counseling is such a great place. Everyone there is super welcoming and makes you feel comfortable from the start. What I love most is how they listen and tailor everything to what you need—you're… never just another appointment on the schedule. Melody is amazing! She's so kind, easy to talk to, and always quick to respond if you need anything. You can tell she genuinely cares and wants the best for you. If you're thinking about starting counseling or just need someone to talk to, this is the place to go. Can't say enough good things!

Growth in recovery Counseling Center is by far all around excellent, the staff is excellent. The owner has the utmost respect for people as well as her staff I highly recommend this place.

I highly recommend Growth & Recovery Counseling. The office is so warm and inviting. My experience was wonderful. The practice owner Melody Williams processes a passion to help others and is willing to go above and… beyond to get you an appointment with the best therapist for your needs. My Therapist was amazing, she helped pull me from a dark place and set me in a place of healing. She seen me for the person I am and her sense of humor helped when I was out of my depth. I am so grateful for her perspective and support. I also had the opportunity to attend some workshops they were having which gave me the chance to meet other therapist as well. They were ALL amazing!

My husband made the appointment via email the lady scheduled us with Kelly glass and was told we could have a 11am appointment and no response back as to if we were going to have that appointment. We show up thinking… our appointment is at 11 to find out there's no check in area to let someone know where here, waited 30 minutes before leaving to find out some guy went in to see Kelly at 11. This place is very unprofessional with not knowing how to schedule people or even knowing if your there

Very professional and caring. I'm so happy that I was directed to Growth and recovery.

I trusted in having therapy to heal me and have a new life to do so and I was let down by my new female therapist. She never told me I couldn’t have my notes that she was writing during the first session. She promised… me those notes via text but instead I got progress notes. I didn’t want progress notes. I was hoping for healing and moving forward but instead I get treated badly, lied too, took another step backward, and lied too about those notes etc. I felt pressured into her writing it by telling her my hurtful, painful, and traumatized story. I want to give it to my new therapist. I hate how I am being treated by my former therapist etc. I want those notes not progress notes. Realized I got the wrong ones when I got home. That therapist was never going to heal or help me. I am facing being homeless and nobody cares.

I recently did a series of sessions with Allison to learn how to manage my anxiety and calm my nervous system. I cannot say enough good things. Allison is professional, knowledgeable and above all compassionate. She has… helped me make progress in areas that I had been stuck for a long while. I am so grateful that I connected with Allison and I would highly recommend working with her if you are curious how hypnotherapy or emotional freedom technique can work for you.

I under went hypnotherapy for depression, addiction and anxiety after many failed attempts with medication. I was referred by a friend not sure what to expect but I went in with an open mind ready for anything to help.… I worked with Allison and only had 4 sessions but immediately after the 1st session I felt immensely better. Since then my life has been changed for the better. I have stopped drinking, my relationship with my kids and wife are amazing now and I feel happy every day. It works

Allison is a great therapist. I have been seeing her for close to 2 months now. She has been a tremendous support system since my father passed away. With every session I learn something new about myself and learn new… methods of coping with anxiety and depression.

I see Dr. Evanko for individual sessions and my boyfriend occasionally joins us. He is a wonderful psychologist and very perceptive. I have made so much progress and though I have a long way to go i couldn't be happier… for this facility and Dr. Evanko

Growth and Recovery has a very warm and inviting atmosphere. The various counselors offer counseling for most mental health situations. The office staff is knowledgeable and helpful in choosing the perfect match for all… their clients. My experience was wonderful. I recommend them to anyone who is seeking to better their mental health.

This is an excellent counseling center in the Trinity/ New Port Richey area. All of the clinicians are highly educated, caring people who are well trained to treat a variety of issues. Counseling can feel overwhelming… at first but the environment and the therapists at Growth and Recovery are warm and welcoming and will help you to feel right at home. The office staff are responsive to calls and very good at helping you to find the therapist best qualified to treat your needs.

Dr. Waddell legitimately helped save my life, don't know where I'd be without her. Cannot recommend her enough. She's so perceptive and compassionate, but also gives it to you straight if she notices that's what you… want. My family and I have seen her for depression, grief, and general life advice, and she's been patient and stellar the whole time. I love her, thank you Dr. Waddell!!

The Growth & Recovery Counseling Center is the best client-focused group private practices in our area! I am a Therapist myself and have worked with the Owner Joy Davis for years. She is an excellent Social Worker &… Eating Disorder Specialist. My counseling colleagues at G & R go above and beyond in caring, respecting and helping their clients in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Highly recommend!

Research for actually someone who specializes in an area of expertise. Wary of clock watchers
