Getting to know Susana Russ
Do you want to feel centered and tap into healing? Do you want to find insight? I want you to too, and I am willing to walk with you on your journey.
I am an energetic, empathetic, and creative psychotherapy clinician with an extensive career in clinical social work. I hold a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. I've helped individuals from diverse academic, socioeconomic, cultural, disability, and ethnic backgrounds.
My colleagues describe me as knowledgeable, courageous, innovative, and inspirational. I consistently demonstrate professional core values of integrity, compassion, and continuous improvement.
My career began working with substance use recovery and end-of-life planning and care. I progressed into international social work, living in Nicaragua and Venezuela. I specialized in trauma and familial sexual abuse. I settled in California and maintained a generalist clinical practice.
What should a new client know about working with you?
In the first session I want to know you and what brought you here. I want to make sure you feel safe and have the skills to remain centered. I want to discuss how you envision healing, and what insight you want to gain.
I gear the sessions to your needs. If you are someone who wants to process, or if you are someone who wants direction and homework I try to provide the structure you need to make therapy work.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
