Rise 2 Grind Foundation
Direct Services & Therapeutic Programs
Rise to Grind Foundation provides direct mental health services designed to support individuals, families, couples, and youth within the community. Our core clinical service is psychotherapy, delivered in partnership with Simple Solutions Psychotherapy, which provides all licensed and professional clinical staff. This partnership ensures that all services are delivered by qualified, experienced, and ethically supervised mental health professionals.
Services are provided by licensed therapists, registered associate clinicians, and supervised student trainees completing their mental health degree requirements. All therapeutic services are conducted under appropriate clinical supervision and in full compliance with professional and ethical standards.
Therapeutic services are available to individuals with Molina and IEHP insurance, as well as to self-pay clients at a reduced, community-accessible rate. When funding is available, Rise to Grind Foundation may assist in covering or offsetting the cost of services for eligible participants. Financial assistance is contingent upon available grant funding, donations, and program resources, and is not guaranteed.
Services are offered through multiple formats to meet diverse needs, including in-person sessions, telehealth, individual therapy, family counseling, couples and marriage counseling, play therapy, and group-based interventions. Rise to Grind Foundation has over five years of experience providing mental health services to individuals and families within the community.
In addition to traditional talk therapy, Rise to Grind Foundation offers activity-based therapeutic groups designed to promote emotional regulation, self-expression, social skill development, and confidence building. These groups incorporate movement-based activities, creative expression, hands-on projects, mentorship-driven exercises, and experiential learning. Activity-based therapy allows participants to process emotions in practical and engaging ways while strengthening communication, teamwork, and coping strategies.
Our therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and individualized, utilizing evidence-based modalities and interventions. Play therapy and experiential techniques are intentionally integrated to maintain engagement among youth and adolescents while supporting healthy emotional, behavioral, and social development.
