ANEW DAY'S CLIENTS
Anew Day serves the general population of our community. We offer our services to individuals of all ages, couples, families, and groups without discrimination. Our clients present a wide range of clinical issues and life circumstances. We do our best to meet every client where they are in life’s journey. Knowing that we are a faith-based organization, some clients request counseling from a Biblical perspective, which we are glad to provide.
​
PHILOSOPHY OF MINISTRY
Anew Day is a Christian based religious non-profit counseling and training center. All Anew Day staff are united by their love for Christ and their agreement with our statement of faith. We are people who have been loved well by God and seek to reflect His love into the lives of others. We do not proselytize or bring faith into a session unless the client asks for it. We meet our clients where they are without judgment or condemnation hoping to help them live mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy lives. We fundamentally believe that all the mental wellness needs of our clients can be met without compromising God’s truth because we believe God’s truth supports healthy living. Though we hope and pray for opportunities to share our faith, we understand that if we never get the chance, our clients still received God’s love through the way we cared for them.
​
OUR COMMUNITY
Anew Day is nestled in the tree covered foothills of Nevada County, about one hour north-east of Sacramento, California. Grass Valley and Nevada City combine to create a small community of about 20,000 people. Residents and visitors are drawn to our historic downtown shop culture and our beautiful lakes, rivers, and trails.
"I was fortunate to gain all of my clinical hours from trainee-to-associate at Anew Day. Anew Day offers an amazing and rewarding opportunity for MFT Trainees and Associates to gain hours of experience and to gain rich experience within those hours. Anew Day provides a multifaceted cultural and socioeconomic client base including children, adolescents, families, adults, and couples with which to develop a well-rounded clinical training. The clinical supervision I received was professional, warm, enjoyable, and challenging. The supervisors challenged me to always consider the therapeutic direction I was taking with a client, my diagnosis of the client and, for me, my time management. Supervision was consistently professional with plenty of encouragement and direction and was done with the client's best interests in mind. We shared a lot of laughter also as we collaborated together in supervisory groups. I am so thankful for the training I received at Anew Day. The facility at Anew Day has several individual and couples counseling rooms, group and family counseling rooms, and a dedicated Sand Tray room. It is a friendly and encouraging atmosphere located in beautiful Nevada City which allows for a delightful in-between-clients walking environment."
