Start to RISE

In 2025, new federal regulations targeting healthcare funding resulted in significant tension, confusion, and uncertainty throughout the industry. Insurance companies were compelled to terminate contracts with providers, leading to the closure of a local primary care and behavioral health program, which in turn caused staff layoffs and disruption of patient care.

RISE Integrative Wellness exists to challenge the status quo in mental health care. Grounded in a commitment to exceptional, compassionate service, the practice confronts systemic failures head‑on and advances forward‑thinking models designed to create lasting, equitable change.

Our Mission & Values

Establish a new model of mental health care that is affordable, accessible, and grounded in the belief that patients and providers should be the primary decision‑makers in each person’s care.

Our organization is built on four core values:

Resilience – We believe our strength to overcome adversity grows when we stand together as a community.

Inclusivity – We believe in creating spaces where everyone feels valued, safe, and connected.

Support – We believe in building a strong foundation to lift others up in times of need.

Education – We believe access to information empowers individuals to make informed choices about their personal care and lives.

Through these values, we believe we become stronger, healthier, and more capable. This is how we RISE.

Meet Alicia Dominguez

Alicia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California, with a Master’s in Social Work from USC and an MBA from UC Irvine. Her career began in clinical practice, where she saw firsthand how difficult it was for clients to navigate a fragmented and often inequitable mental health system. Those experiences fueled her decision to pursue an MBA, strengthening her leadership and business skills so she could advocate for meaningful change. She didn’t yet know that this path would ultimately lead her to build a company committed to reimagining how mental health care is delivered.

Today, as the CEO of Rise Integrative Wellness, Alicia is dedicated to expanding access to high‑quality, evidence‑based care and creating a model that honors both patients and providers. It is a privilege to do this work, and she is grateful for the opportunity to support you on your journey.
