Our Services
We understand that true wellness stems from addressing every facet of your being, and our team of experienced professionals is committed to guiding you toward lasting transformation.
We focus on overcoming isolation and barriers to care for marginalized populations facing mental health, substance use, and homelessness challenges.
Our holistic approach considers historical trauma and current oppressions, aiming to reduce disparities by offering in-home, community-based, and outpatient services that accommodate various limitations, ensuring equitable access to care and promoting family unity.
Our RWC Outpatient Treatment program approaches substance use and mental health with a social justice focus, recognizing the role of social injustices in addiction cycles.
Our purpose-built program offers a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, community-based environment for behavioral health services, providing comprehensive care including outpatient counseling, wellness services, assessments, and recovery management to support lifelong recovery for adults facing substance use and mental health challenges.
Our Virtual IOP Program brings healing home — combining flexibility with deep, culturally-rooted care.
Grounded in social justice, our virtual Intensive Outpatient Program addresses substance use and mental health with a holistic, somatic approach.
From the comfort of home, clients engage in trauma-informed services that honor cultural traditions and healing practices, including drumming, yoga, reiki, sound healing, sage smudging (by Native staff), aromatherapy, and more.
We center the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—while making care accessible, de-westernized, and deeply restorative.
Rising Roots provides a holistic, inclusive space where children can flourish emotionally, socially, and academically. Our combination of compassionate care, evidence-based practices, and cultural sensitivity makes us a trusted partner in your child’s journey toward growth and healing.
We are dedicated to improving quality and reducing disparities in behavioral healthcare through education and advocacy. Our professional trainings provide cutting-edge information and education from leading industry experts!
