The Wellness Project is a community-centered, not-for-profit program designed to integrate holistic health and wellness into clinical mental healthcare. Open to anyone - whether or not they're part of Inspiring Insight, the program offers mentorship, Life Coaching, medication management therapy, yoga, reiki, hypnotherapy, genetic testing, psychiatric testing crisis management, structured support and more to help people avoid or step down from hospitalization, residential, or partial programs.
Key Features:
- Affordable care: Sliding scale fees, nonprofit funding, and staff contributions help minimize or eliminate costs for patients.
- Proven results: In its first tracked year, the program followed around 24 participants, showing high completion rates and low hospitalization. Only one person required hospitalization, and that was early in the program.
- Stepped up care model: The core program lasts 4 weeks, then transitions clients to fewer weekly sessions, with continued on-call support.
- Holistic & clinical integration: Uses a DBT-based model (Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotional Regulation, Interpersonal Effectiveness) and offers holistic options like mentoring and wellness services.
- Low crisis rate: In almost four years, Inspiring Insight has seen no suicides and very few hospitalizations across over 800 clients.
- The goal of The Wellness Project is simple but powerful: to provide accessible, effective, and compassionate care that keeps people stable, supported, and out of high-level care settings, all while keeping costs low and outcomes strong.
