Serve With Restoring Hope

RHM exists to serve Christ and His Church by equipping believers, strengthening families, and extending wise, Scripture-anchored care to the community. This page outlines practical ways to serve with RHM in volunteer and limited contractor capacities.

Every role is designed to protect those we serve, preserve gospel integrity, and maintain clear boundaries around scope of practice and supervision.

Our Posture in Service

We serve as students of Jesus Christ. He is the Teacher and Counselor; we are helpers who seek to embody Scripture rather than prove ourselves right. We value humility, careful listening, prayer, accountability, and supervision. We aim to ask the kinds of wise, heart-revealing questions Jesus asked.

Volunteer Roles

Unpaid service supporting discipleship and outreach initiatives with training and oversight.

Coaching Roles

Non-licensed roles with explicit boundaries and written informed consent for client support.

Contract Teaching

1099 roles offered when there is an active instructional need and approved capacity.

Board of Directors

Care That Is Measured — Because People Are What Matter

Restoring Hope Ministries tracks the well-being of every participant in our clinical and faith-based services using empirically validated screeners, clinical interviews, behavioral analysis, and self-report — so we can honestly see whether the people we serve are getting better.

This rigor reflects the training of our founder, Dr. Jeffrey Gross, who earned an M.S. in Clinical Psychology from the Wisconsin School of Professional Psychology and is continuing his Psy.D. studies in Clinical Psychology, with completion anticipated in 2028. His Th.D. in Theology and Ph.D. in Christian Counseling complement that clinical education with theological preparation for Christ-centered soul care.

At Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin, he served as a Student Psychologist and later Chief Student Psychologist, supporting veterans and first responders with traumatic brain injuries through the BRAVE program. His work included assessment, individualized treatment planning, multidisciplinary rehabilitation, psychoeducational and process-oriented groups, and peer supervision. His experience also includes supervised psychological testing of clergy at Milwaukee Psychotherapy Collaborative, recovery-focused group development at The Manor by Windrose, and case management and peer-support supervision at Biehl Bridges to Recovery.

Continuing education in assessment, trauma, neurobehavioral conditions, supervision, ethics, and risk management further informs this approach. Together, these experiences help shape RHM’s commitment to careful assessment, responsible documentation, collaborative care, and attention to each person’s spiritual, relational, emotional, and practical needs. His clinical psychology doctorate remains in progress; this background does not replace the qualifications or licensure required for regulated clinical services.
