NewGround Wellness was founded by Rebecca Gruber, a nurse practitioner with experience in family practice, behavioral health, and addiction medicine. Her work has always focused on meeting people where they are — especially those navigating substance use, trauma, and complex life transitions.
After the loss of her son Jacob to fentanyl, Rebecca felt called to create something beyond traditional clinical spaces — a place where grief, healing, and recovery could exist together. NewGround Wellness was built from both professional experience and lived reality, with the belief that healing is deeply human and never linear.
