Rooted in Experience. Informed by Practice.
Resources, tools, and real talk for clinicians who are growing and for anyone invested in their healing and personal growth.

Hi, I'm Daniela
A licensed clinical social worker,author, and educator.
I created Rooted & Informed to bridge two worlds I care about deeply: supporting clinicians as they grow into confident practitioners, and walking alongside women as they heal.
Everything here is grounded in real practice and real life.
