TRAINING FACILITATOR & OPERATIONS

Dr. Viola Mejía, PsyD, a Chingona and Bruja-she works as a clinical psychologist licensed in the State of CA. She is the Founder and CEO of Collective Corazón: Community Psychotherapy and Facilitation Inc where she integrates Liberation Psychology, Decolonizing, and Ancestral Wisdom to support people in healing complex and relational trauma, sexual harm, systemic harms, and overall mental health. She specializes in supporting QTBIPOC communities in reclaiming our own sacred stories and healing through creative practices and dreamwork by leaning into the heart as the ultimate compass for radical communal healing. She is called to serve her community through unconditional love, healing practices, and building a relationship with our emotions as teachers and guides. She believes the relationship is what heals and dreams of healing moving outside of the clinical room and into everyday places where each person is connected to their unique gifts and shares their medicine with their communities.

What does Root to Bloom mean to you?

To me Root to Bloom is a transformative place that brings together people who feel a call to serve their communities through their own healing. It is a program and community where by going inward we connect to our authentic growth that then allows us to bloom out and care for our communities with creative solutions that instead of draining our energy we serve from a place of unending power.
