About Root & Rise
-
Root & Rise was built for two kinds of women...
The first is women in healthcare who are launching, growing, or reshaping a cash-based or purpose-driven private practice. Women who have the vision and clinical skill but need systems, structure, and strategy to grow without burnout.
The second is emerging pelvic health clinicians who want to build confidence and clinical skill through individualized mentorship, without the isolation or overwhelm that often comes with being new to the specialty.
-
Most business support for healthcare providers falls into one of two categories: coaching, which guides you toward your own answers, or mentorship, which offers wisdom from lived experience and relationship. Both have real value.
Root & Rise does both and goes one step further.
The missing piece for most practice owners isn't insight. It's implementation. You can have clarity about what needs to change and still have no idea how to actually build it. That's where Root & Rise is different. Dr. Amanda doesn't just guide you or share what worked for her — she consults and builds alongside you. That means you leave sessions with actual systems, frameworks, templates, and structures tailored to how you work — not a list of things to figure out on your own.
It's the difference between someone pointing you toward the destination and someone helping you lay the road.
-
Root & Rise bridges two worlds that rarely come together: clinical expertise and business operations.
Dr. Amanda brings 16+ years of clinical experience, a background as a clinic director and cash-based practice co-founder, and a systems-minded approach to every engagement.
Nothing here is one-size-fits-all. Every session is 1:1 and tailored to your goals, your capacity, and your life. And wellbeing is never an afterthought. Every strategy is built around it.

Dr. Amanda is a board-certified physical therapist in Women's Health with CAPP-Pelvic and CAPP-OB certifications, held a board-certification in Orthopedic Physical Therapy for 10 years, and brings over 16 years of clinical experience.
She has served as a clinic director, built a successful solo cash-based practice earning full-time income in part-time hours, and co-founded a pelvic PT clinic that doubled monthly revenue within 21 months.
She is also a mom to two neurodivergent kids and approaches every client engagement with the understanding that life, work, and the nervous system are inseparable.

You can expect to leave with clarity you can actually use. Not just ideas, but documented structure, working systems, and a strategy aligned with your values and capacity.
Depending on your path, that might mean a clear business foundation, streamlined operations, refined clinical skills, or a plan for sustainable growth.
Sessions are collaborative, personalized, and always grounded in your wellbeing first.
-
It depends on where you are and what you need most right now.
If you're building your foundation — clarifying your vision, creating structure for the first time, or running solo and wanting steady, sustainable support — Root Foundations is your starting place. It's designed for intentional, consistent progress without pressure to move faster than you're ready for.
If you're actively scaling — hiring, expanding, making bigger and faster decisions — Rise Expansion gives you the higher-frequency support and priority access you need to keep moving with clarity and confidence.
If you have one specific area that's been weighing on you and you don't need an ongoing commitment right now — Refine Intensive is three focused sessions over eight weeks to audit, identify, and build a clear plan around exactly that thing.
Not sure? That's what the discovery call is for. We'll figure it out together.

Yes. The Clinical Confidence Path is an individualized mentorship experience for new and developing pelvic health clinicians. It includes case review, clinical reasoning support, treatment strategy, and the kind of grounded guidance that helps you grow into a confident provider — without burnout or isolation.
-
The Root & Rise Blueprint is the proven framework behind all client work.
It moves through three phases: Root (grounding in clarity, values, and core foundations), Rise (building with intention through aligned systems and strategy), and Refine (sustaining with ease over time).
Whether you're starting a practice, scaling, or mentoring clinically, the Blueprint ensures your growth is steady, supported, and true to who you are.
For Women Building a Practice
-
Starting a cash-based practice is one of the most empowering moves a healthcare provider can make and it works best when the foundation is built intentionally.
That means getting clear on your vision and values first, building systems before you're overwhelmed, setting rates and boundaries before you're burned out, and designing operations that support your life instead of consuming it.
The Root & Rise Blueprint was built specifically for this. Grounding you in clarity before scaling into action.
-
Sustainable practice growth depends on systems that actually work for the way you practice and live — not generic templates.
That starts with auditing what's draining you, then building structure around your workflows, client communication, scheduling, documentation, and financials. Strategy comes next: defining your offer, your ideal client, and a growth path that doesn't require you to do everything at once.
This is the core of the business consulting work at Root & Rise.
-
Burnout in healthcare isn't just about doing too much. It's about doing too much without the right structure underneath you.
The most effective strategies include: building systems that reduce decision fatigue, setting capacity-based boundaries before you feel the need to, creating financial clarity so you're not making fear-based decisions, and designing your schedule around your life — not the other way around.
Sustainable growth is possible. It just has to be built with your nervous system in mind from the start.
-
Generic programs can give you a framework.
Personalized consulting gives you a strategy built around your specific goals, capacity, stage of business, and life circumstances. For women in healthcare especially, the challenges are layered — clinical identity, financial risk, family demands, and a professional culture that rarely models sustainable leadership.
Personalized support means you're not adapting someone else's path. You're building your own, with someone in your corner who understands all of it.
If you’re ready to move from survival mode to sustainable leadership, I’d love to support you!
Rising from overwhelmed visionary to confident leadership!
Rooted in alignment.
