Onrise Care

Compassionate Mental Health and Player Care.

04/07/2026

Welcome to Onrise, Ryan Walton

His lived experience, both personally and professionally, has reinforced how powerful it can be to have someone walk alongside you during a difficult season rather than try to fix you.

He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Applied Sport Psychology because he wants to continue bridging the gap between mental health and performance, identity, and motivation.

Welcome to Onrise, Cari Roccaro Onwualu 🤍

Former NWSL athlete. Notre Dame alum. Passionate mental health advocate.

After years in the league, Cari, a true teammate, raised the need for stronger mental health support, brought it to the Players Association and player reps, and helped push forward the inclusion of protected mental health leave in the NWSL CBA. Up to six months, paid. Real support for athletes when they need it most.

We kept crossing paths. This one was meant to happen.

Now she is bringing that same perspective to support athletes on their journey.

Mental health support built for athletes trusted by former athletes.

We are excited to welcome Cal State Bakersfield Women’s Soccer team to the Onrise team!

Student-athletes will have immediate access to secure, virtual one-on-one sessions with Onrise, built to meet athletes where they are, including after-hours and during the offseason, when support is often hardest to access. This partnership reflects a broader shift in college athletics: as the environment becomes more professionalized and pressure-packed, schools are treating mental health as essential infrastructure rather than an optional benefit.

Thank you .martinn staff for entrusting in Onrise.

Proud to announce a new partnership with the University of Pennsylvania Division of Recreation and Intercollegiate Athletics to expand mental health resources for nearly 1,000 Penn student-athletes.

This collaboration strengthens Penn’s existing support and complements the work of its on-site Head of Athletics Mental Health Services, Sonia Johnson, adding broader access to athlete-specific care both on and off campus.

Through Onrise, Penn student-athletes will have access to:
Athlete Peer Support from former collegiate & professional athletes
Therapy with licensed clinicians who specialize in student-athletes and psychiatric care for medication evaluation and management when needed.

We’re grateful to Denise Poole and Sonia Johnson for the thoughtful leadership behind this partnership and honored to support Penn student-athletes with care that meets the realities of Division I life.

We love our student-athlete interns!

Athlete Peer Support Specialists like Dominique understand what athletes carry beyond the game. Through multiple injuries and over a dozen surgeries, Dominique experienced firsthand the resilience required not just physically, but mentally and he’s got the resume to prove it. Today, he uses that experience to meet athletes where they are, offering support rooted in empathy.

We’re pleased to welcome to the team, Dominique Easley!

Sequoia Holmes didn’t just play the game — she left it better than she found it.

On Saturday in Nashville, Sequoia officially closed her professional basketball career with her final appearance on Athletes Unlimited Pro Basketball Championship Day, helping Team Rhythm earn a win in her last game.

But the stat line is only part of the story: across 36 AU games, Sequoia averaged 4.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 1.6 assists — and in 2025 she delivered her most extensive AU season, starting all 12 games and finishing 19th overall on the leaderboard.

What stands out most is what she’s built beyond the court.

Sequoia was named the 2025 Athletes Unlimited Civic Leadership Award recipient for her commitment to community impact, including her work as Assistant Director of the Vegas Elite Girls Basketball Club — creating mentorship and leadership pathways for girls ages 5–18.

After her final game, she said it best:
“AU… has been just a family to me when I didn’t really feel like other places wanted me to be there… for AU to call and say, ‘we need you here,’ made me feel like it was all worth it.”

At Onrise, we talk a lot about what it means to support athletes as whole humans — through pressure, transition, identity shifts, and the quiet moments people don’t see. Retirement is one of the biggest transitions an athlete will ever face, and every athlete deserves to step away with recognition, dignity, and community.

Well done, Sequoia.

And well done to Athletes Unlimited for consistently making athletes feel seen, valued, and celebrated — the way it should be.

Sports betting is no longer “around” athletics—it’s woven into it: broadcasts, apps, group chats, locker rooms.

For student-athletes especially, it often starts innocently. Then it accelerates. And by the time it feels like a problem, shame can keep them from turning to family—or even the in-house resources meant to help.

That’s why Onrise is partnering with EPIC Global Solutions to strengthen gambling harm prevention and support for athletes and coaches at the professional and collegiate level.

EPIC’s education is powerful because it’s grounded in lived experience—real people who understand how quickly gambling can take hold. Together, EPIC will support our peer support experts at Onrise with face-to-face and digital education options for sports organizations, helping athletes build safer, healthier relationships with gambling products before things spiral.

This partnership plugs directly into what Onrise already provides—always-on, athlete-specific care delivered through secure 1:1 sessions with flexible scheduling. And it strengthens our ability to support athletes who are dealing with the consequences, as well as those trying to prevent them.

We have to get in early. Spot risk sooner. Intervene faster. Protect athletes’ health, futures, and the team communities depending on them.

As Problem Gambling Awareness Month begins, we’re grateful to stand alongside EPIC—and to keep building the infrastructure athletes deserve.

The data is undeniable.

Athletes with moderate to severe depression show a 6.09 point reduction in distress scores—a 74% decrease on validated measures. Peak severity drops from 8.18 to 2.09 in stabilization on the PHQ-4.

This level of improvement isn't theoretical. It's associated in the literature with substantial reductions in su***de risk.

We don't build wellness apps. We build clinically-governed infrastructure designed for rapid stabilization, early intervention, and prevention of escalation.

This is what happens when you combine licensed clinicians, certified peer supporters, and 24/7 crisis care into one integrated system.

Athletic Directors: thank you.

At Onrise, we’re a clinician-led team—and we all work directly with patients. So we see, in real time, what athletes are carrying and where the system can break.

Yesterday, an athlete was about to run out of an uncommon medication at home. Within hours, the athletic director, the sports medicine physician, and our clinical team coordinated to get it prescribed and filled that same day—so the athlete had a seamless experience and one less thing to worry about.

That’s the work. Quiet. Fast. Human. And it only happens when ADs advocate the way you do.

To every athletic director leading departments, managing risk, and still showing up for individual athletes: we see you, and we’re grateful to partner with you.
