About this Episode:

In this episode Rhonda Nelson discusses her passion as a holistic psychologist integrating multiple modalities including compassionate inquiry, Internal Family Systems and psychedelic integration to support the healing and well-being of her clients. 

Rhonda is a facilitator for Gabor Mate’s compassionate inquiry program and shares her personal journey with his work including her experience attending one of Gabor’s retreats in the jungle of Peru to explore with the plant medicine Ayahuasca. Her ceremonial work with Ayahuasca led her to have a profound shift in consciousness which she contributes to being a catalyst to healing from an inherited neuromuscular condition.

Rhonda’s safe presence and huge heart made for an inviting landscape to explore what it takes for us to heal and touch upon the places inside within each of us that tend to get in the way.
