Treatment Phase 3: Rise

Life after trauma starts here

You’ve done the hard work of facing your trauma.
Now it’s time to (re)build a life that feels meaningful to you.

Phase 1

Clinical Evaluation

During your initial 75-minute appointment with a licensed therapist, we’ll discuss your background, symptoms, and goals to determine the best treatment path for you.

Intensive Care

Intensive treatment includes 3-5 sessions per week over several weeks to provide significant relief from PTSD symptoms.

Recovery Program

After your PTSD symptoms have resolved, you can move to the final phase of Nema’s treatment program—what we call “Rise”. This is a space where healing deepens, life expands, and you can begin to live with more connection, safety, and meaning. Designed for patients who have completed Intensive Care, Rise isn’t about treating trauma. It’s about recovering trust in yourself, in others, and in the future you deserve.

What is Rise?

Rise is Nema’s post-treatment recovery and reconnection program. It’s a thoughtfully designed offering for patients who have already completed the core of their trauma therapy and are ready to focus on thriving in their lives—on their own terms.

Where Intensive Care was trauma-based therapy to address your symptoms, Rise is about building the beauty and purpose that comes next within a community of trauma survivors. It supports your ongoing growth in areas that trauma often disrupts—like relationships, community, self-worth, safety, and purpose.

At its core, Rise exists to improve your quality of life after trauma by fostering personal growth, deepening connection and intimacy, and supporting your evolving recovery.

Rise helps you build the life you want

For many survivors, the end of trauma-focused treatment brings up significant questions:

How do I reconnect with others now that I'm no longer in survival mode?

What kind of life do I truly want to build?

How do I continue growing when therapy ends?

What happens if my symptoms return, or I feel re-traumatized?

We created Rise to answer these questions and offer a soft landing after the intensity of trauma therapy. It provides continued access to trusted care, structured support, and a community of peers who truly understand. You don't have to navigate this journey alone.

What Rise includes

Rise offers a variety of flexible services designed to meet you where you are, for up to 10 months after completing Intensive Care:

1:1 Mental health check-in sessions

Ongoing support from your Nema therapist as you continue to grow. These maintenance sessions help you navigate life's inevitable challenges—new stressors, job changes, or personal loss. We'll practice your skills, apply a trauma-informed lens to new situations, and keep your healing on track.

Peer mentorship

Connect with someone who has also completed treatment and understands what post-PTSD life can entail.

Peer-led support groups

Share your story, give and receive support, and connect with a community that genuinely gets it.

Skills-based groups

Discussions of real-life topics like setting boundaries, navigating relationships, building a sense of purpose, managing emotions, tolerating distress, and more.

Flexible scheduling and formats

Stay engaged in a way that fits your life.
