Unlimited chat with AI that is grounded in clinically proven protocols. Every week, a licensed mental health professional reviews your conversations and sends you personal voice guidance.
That's 1/10th the cost of a single traditional session, with real oversight every week.
You want mental health support but can't afford $150–$300 per session
You've tried AI tools like ChatGPT but found the advice generic—it feels like meaningful conversation, but leads to no real change.
You want professional guidance without the stress of live face-to-face sessions
Your schedule makes regular appointments a burden
AI tools like ChatGPT are available 24/7, but they're designed to please you—not help you grow. They validate everything, even unhealthy thoughts. They can't change course when you're stuck in bad patterns. And they jump straight to solutions before you've been fully heard.
Traditional support can be very effective, but the barriers are real:
A single session can cost well over $200. Scheduling around work and life is exhausting. Finding the right fit takes a frustrating amount of trial and error. And many people are not yet ready for the pressure of opening up face-to-face.
RiseTwice gives you the 24/7 availability of AI backed by the safety, insight, and course-correction of a real licensed professional.
No $200 sessions. No awkward face-to-face pressure. No AI that just tells you what you want to hear.
Real guidance. Real accountability. $29/month.
This isn't just a "chat bot." Our AI uses 10 proven clinical modalities to provide you with evidence-based support.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy

"Before your meeting tomorrow, I want you to try something. It's a two-minute exercise that might change how it goes..."
No scheduling. No video calls. No sitting across from a stranger.
Each week, a licensed professional reviews your progress and sends you a personal voice message. Listen on your own time—while walking the dog, on your commute, or relaxing at home.
High-value guidance. Zero social friction.
We built a firewall between your identity and your clinical care.
Your reviewer sees your progress—not your profile. All chat logs are stripped of personal identifiers before they reach human eyes. Licensed professionals focus purely on your psychology, not your identity.
They never see your name. They never see your face.
You're not handing over a diary. Before your weekly summary is sent, you review it first. Redact anything you're not ready to share. Hide sensitive details. You decide exactly what your reviewer sees.
Share on your terms. Always.

What you get:
That's less than a typical insurance copay.
RiseTwice is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting young people in need. Although our technology is built with this population in mind, it can be used by anyone who finds it useful.
MD Founded
Inspired by urgent need: An MD's direct exposure to mental health emergencies and experience volunteering with at-risk youth led to the creation of RiseTwice.

Founder, CEO
Byron is passionate about caring for at-risk youth, a goal that stemmed from tutoring homeless children, mentoring adolescents exiting the juvenile detention system, leading clinical and non-clinical operations for children living in shelters, and advocating on Capitol Hill. He has made it his career to help those struggling through the lowest moments of their lives and is excited to leverage new technologies for young people in need.

Chief Technology Officer
Thomas brings an extensive career in business and technology to the table. He is the co-founder of Vorail.com, a leading platform for the global low vision and blind community to connect & support each other. He also co-founded Meetchina.com, a B2B platform that helped China manufacturers connect with their global customers. For this endeavor he raised over $40 million with Series A,B & C rounds led by Citibank and grew the company from two founders to over seven hundred staff across seventeen offices.
