Greetings, Rouse community! As we bid farewell to 2023, we are delighted to present a retrospective look at our impactful journey at Rouse Relational Wellness. From enriching couples' sessions to enlightening workshops, we've had a remarkable year, and we're eager to share our achievements. 

Join us for a thoughtful reflection on the strides we've made, celebrating the successes and growth within our therapeutic programs. Looking forward, we're excited to provide a glimpse into our upcoming initiatives for 2024, as we continue our dedicated commitment to fostering relational well-being.

We added some tech to our stack. Is that what you’re supposed to say? Either way, beyond the normal Google and Zoom, we added services into our work to ensure that we provide clients with accurate and up to date care. Not only that, we made it easier for our clients to get reimbursed! Check out what we added in 2023:

• Research-backed couples assessments for our clients

• Measurement-based care through Mirah

• Clients fill out a quick survey before every session to help us stay on track.

• Get reimbursed with ease through Mentaya

• Some of our clients are getting reimbursed up to 80% on their session fees! Saving them a ton of money to work with highly skilled specialists.

Our team conducted over 5000 sessions in 2023. What services were our most popular?

• 50% individual therapy

• 25% couples therapy

• 20% group therapy

• 5% couples intensives

As you can see, whether you’re single, partnered, or poly, we work with everyone regarding relationship support.

It’s hard to describe the excitement we feel about our offerings in 2024. We’re incredibly passionate about providing wonderful therapy services for those in the margins and offering various learning opportunities for the community and therapists alike.
