For Wellness Practitioners
Join The Elevating Collective
At Rise & Thrive, we believe wellbeing is a basic need — not a privilege.
Through The Elevating Collective, we work with a network of wellness practitioners who are committed to making personal growth, emotional resilience, and life skills accessible to women and families working toward financial stability.
The Elevating Collective connects individuals from low-income communities to practical, strengths-based, and non-clinical wellness support — from coaching and mindfulness to creative expression and group workshops. Together, we foster confidence, clarity, and self-agency — the foundations for long-term family stability and the journey out of poverty.
Our Vision
How It Works
We collaborate with Family Service Centres, social workers, and community partners to refer women and families to guided, affordable wellness support.
As a practitioner, you’ll be part of a shared contribution model that values dignity, accountability, and sustainability:
Practitioners offer their services at low bono rates
Participants contribute a small, symbolic commitment fee — investing in their own growth
The remaining cost is supported by Rise & Thrive through donor partnerships
This model ensures wellness professionals are fairly valued while keeping support accessible and empowering for participants.
Our Practitioners
Our community of practitioners includes certified coaches, counsellors, and facilitators who bring experience in:
Life, parent, and relationship coaching
Mindfulness, breathwork, and stress management
Emotional regulation and trauma-informed practice
Nutrition, movement, and creative expression
All practitioners are carefully vetted and sign a Practitioner Pledge grounded in ethics, safety, and trauma-informed care. They meet regularly as a group for check-ins, guidance, and shared learning to ensure every participant receives aligned, responsible, and effective support.
What We Offer
Through the Elevating Collective, practitioners contribute to:
One-to-one sessions
Group workshops
Community talks and events
A dedicated program coordinator supports both practitioners and participants, helping to guide engagement and track progress using evidence-based tools.
Join Our Network
If you are a coach, counsellor, or wellness practitioner who believes in expanding access to wellbeing and wants to make your work more inclusive — we’d love to partner with you.
Together, we can build a collective where professional expertise meets purpose, and where healing and growth become accessible to all.
