Introduction

Hi, I’m Kristy Manresa, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and founder of Root to Rise Wellness. I created this space with one mission in mind: to help individuals reconnect with themselves, heal deeply, and grow intentionally. With over a decade of experience in mental health, crisis support, and wellness education, I bring a grounded, culturally-informed, and compassionate approach to every session. My practice is rooted in the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, and my role is to create a safe, supportive space for you to reconnect with your strengths, gain clarity, and move forward with purpose. I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s most difficult transitions whether that’s managing anxiety and depression, healing from trauma, or improving relationships. Root to Rise Wellness is more than a practice, it’s a movement toward sustainable well-being, emotional resilience, and inner alignment. Together, we’ll work toward the growth, healing and thriving you deserve.
