Rise Rooted
Empowering Growth From the Ground Up
Hi, I’m Graciela — a psychiatric registered nurse, mental health consultant, and the founder of Rise Rooted. With a deep commitment to culturally responsive care and years of experience in psychiatric nursing, I created Rise Rooted to help people and organizations heal, grow, and thrive.
