The Volition Collective

On May 23rd, our founder, Dr. Megan Pickens, LPC-S, will be leading the Strong, Resilient, and Heard: A Women's Mental Health Conversation Panel from 10:00am to 12:00pm CST on Zoom.

This panel is a space for real, meaningful conversations about the unique mental health journeys of Black women. It’s a chance for therapists, counselors, behavioral health professionals, physicians, nurses, and others in the mental health space to come together, share insights, and learn from each other – without the pressure to provide clinical care.

If you’re passionate about supporting Black women’s mental health and building a more inclusive practice, we’d love for you to join us.

We remember today, June 19th, as the day slaves residing in Texas received the news of their freedom, two years after the establishment of the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1st, 1863.

Our office will be closed to honor and respect the great individuals who were all (finally) liberated from involuntarily building our nation and their impact that carries into our present day.

We hope that you not only celebrate but reflect on the changes we each can make to contribute to a better tomorrow for all!

Have a wonderful Juneteenth holiday!❤️💚🖤

From your VOCOCO Staff and Counselors 🦚
