Meet One Dope Therapist & Founder
Ronnishia Johnson-Hasan, LCSW
Founder & Lead Therapist, R.O.O.T.S. Holistic Healing Services
I’m Ronnishia Johnson-Hasan, LCSW—mother, wife, therapist, and the Grief Goddess. Grief has profoundly shaped my life, stemming from the early loss of my mother, father, brother, and other loved ones. These experiences drive my practice, where I center grief and trauma as vital parts of healing and resilience.
I earned my MSW from San Francisco State University and a bachelor’s from Texas Southern University, focusing on community mental health. My career has spanned work with youth and adults across the San Francisco Bay Area, supporting individuals with complex trauma, severe mental health conditions, and co-occurring disorders. I’ve also developed programs and curricula to foster trauma recovery, resilience, and wellness.
At R.O.O.T.S. Holistic Healing Services, I provide trauma-informed, culturally grounded care. I’ve seen how grief shapes our lives and how few resources reflect the depth of our pain or the resilience we need to heal. Social justice is central to my work—I believe healing is for all of us, especially communities long overlooked by traditional mental health systems.
Through movement, creative expression, and community-driven healing, I help individuals reclaim their stories, rebuild, and find collective healing. Trauma and grief aren’t just personal burdens; they are shared experiences requiring collective care.

1. Culturally Grounded Healing
We see you, we hear you, and we honor the strength of our Black and Indigenous communities. At R.O.O.T.S., we know that healing can’t happen without understanding the full scope of who you are, the history you carry, and the culture that makes you whole. That’s why we provide care that reflects the richness of your experiences, meeting you where you are and acknowledging the unique ways that trauma and grief show up in your life.

2. Trauma-Informed, Holistic Healing
We believe that healing goes beyond just the mind. It’s about connecting body, mind, and spirit, especially when trauma has taken so much from you. Our approach is rooted in care that helps you reclaim your strength through movement, creativity, and mindfulness, so you can heal in a way that honors every part of you. We want you to feel empowered to rebuild, not just survive.

3. Healing for the Hood
The hood deserves healing too. I’m passionate about breaking down the barriers that have kept our communities from accessing the care they need. We are committed to making therapy and mental health support accessible to those who need it most, because our communities deserve more than just survival—we deserve thriving. We’re here to make that happen, by creating safe, inclusive spaces where healing is rooted in justice and equality.

4. Grief is Real, and It Deserves Attention
Grief has shaped my life, and I know it’s shaped yours too. Whether we’re grieving a loved one, a part of ourselves, or a system that has failed us, grief is something we all carry. That’s why I center it in my practice. Grief is real, and it deserves to be seen, understood, and processed with care. We’re here to support you as you move through it, not as something to fix, but as a journey that requires compassion, community, and time.

5. Empowerment Through Knowledge & Connection
Healing happens when we’re equipped with the right tools—and when we come together. At R.O.O.T.S., we believe in empowering you with the knowledge and resources you need to move through trauma and grief. Whether it’s through group sessions, community workshops, or just connecting with others who understand your struggles, we’re building a space where healing isn’t just personal, but collective. We rise by lifting each other up. This version speaks directly from the heart, with a tone that reflects passion, resilience, and empowerment.
