MENTAL WEALTH-CARE™

Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all. Neither is healing.

Our work goes deeper than coping strategies. We help you understand and process what you've been carrying, so it stops shaping how you think, feel, and relate to people.

MEET ROOT & RISE

Care begins with connection

A short introduction to our team, our space, and the way we practice.

WHO WE ARE

A practice built around people

Root & Rise is a boutique, founder-led private-pay practice built on a simple belief: Therapy should be personalized, intentional, and rooted in genuine human connection. We don't manage symptoms; we help you understand and process difficult experiences, so they no longer dictate how you live.

More About Us

WHY ROOT & RISE?

The right therapist matters.
The right approach matters.

We believe meaningful therapy starts with understanding your story, not placing you into a one-size-fits-all model. That's why we thoughtfully match each client with the clinician and treatment approach that's best suited to their goals, experiences, and personality.

OUR SERVICES

Ways we support you

Whether you're navigating a specific challenge or seeking lasting personal growth, our services are designed to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and meaningful support.

INVESTING IN YOUR CARE

Private pay, simplified

We don't bill insurance directly, which means your treatment is guided by your clinical needs, not a company's restrictions. Many clients still get reimbursed through out-of-network benefits. We provide a superbill, and we accept HSA and FSA cards.

Check My Benefits

We have partnered with Mentaya to help clients use their out-of-network benefits to save money on therapy. Use this tool below to see if you qualify for reimbursement for my services.

MEET THE TEAM

Clinicians who actually fit you

We take the time to match you with the therapist who's the best fit for your goals, personality, and needs, because meaningful progress begins with a strong therapeutic relationship.
