At Phoenix Rising Centers, we're committed to transforming mental health care accessibility for college students.

Our innovative college counseling program focuses on providing Inclusive and affordable therapy services to college students, addressing the unique challenges they face in accessing quality mental health support.

Core Components

1. Campus Wellness Blueprint

We start by listening to you. Our process begins with a discovery call that brings together Brown’s campus leaders and student representatives to hear directly about your experiences and concerns.

Next, we conduct a campus-wide assessment—using focus groups and confidential surveys—to understand the real mental health needs and barriers students face at Brown.

From there, we create a customized wellness strategy tailored to your campus community, with a strong emphasis on diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. This blueprint is built around what students actually need, ensuring every voice is heard and all students have access to meaningful support.

Why Your Campus Needs a Wellness Blueprint

A one-size-fits-all approach to student well-being isn’t enough. Today’s students face complex, evolving mental health needs—and your campus deserves a strategy that truly reflects your unique community.

Our Campus Wellness Blueprint is a game-changer for colleges and universities because:

• We Start by Listening: Our process begins with a collaborative discovery call, bringing together campus leaders and student representatives to ensure every perspective is heard from the very start.

• Data-Driven Understanding: We conduct a thorough campus-wide assessment—using focus groups and confidential surveys—to uncover the real mental health needs and barriers your students face. This goes beyond surface-level data to capture the lived experiences that matter most.

• A Strategy Built for Your Campus: We deliver a customized wellness strategy, designed specifically for your institution’s culture, challenges, and strengths. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility are at the heart of every recommendation, ensuring your blueprint is relevant, actionable, and sustainable.

• Student-Centered Solutions: Our approach guarantees that support systems are built around what students actually need, not just what’s convenient or traditional. Every voice is valued, and every student has access to meaningful, effective mental health care.

The Benefits for Your Institution:

• Informs smarter investments in student well-being

• Demonstrates leadership and accountability in mental health support

• Builds trust with students, parents, and the wider community

• Positions your campus as a forward-thinking, inclusive environment where everyone can thrive

With the Campus Wellness Blueprint, your institution can move beyond guesswork and offer targeted, impactful support that meets the real needs of your students—now and in the future.

Let’s work together to create a healthier, more resilient campus community.

2. Rapid Access Counseling & Support

• Get 60-minute counseling or coaching sessions scheduled within just two business days—no long waits or complicated processes.

• Choose from multiple providers, so you can find someone who understands your background and experiences.

• Take advantage of drop-in support hours during the times you need it most, like finals, big transitions, or campus crises.

Whether you need someone to talk to right away or ongoing support, our goal is to make getting help easy, flexible, and truly responsive to what College students need.

Why Rapid Access Counseling & Support Is a Game-Changer for Your Campus

Timely, accessible mental health support is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity for student success and well-being.

• Flexible, On-Demand Access: Drop-in support hours are available during high-stress periods—finals, transitions, or campus crises—so students have help when they need it most, not just when it’s convenient for the system.

• Reduces Barriers, Increases Retention: By making mental health care easy and stigma-free, your institution supports academic performance, retention, and overall student satisfaction.

The Benefits for Your Institution:
