Rhonda Mills (she/her) is a trauma-informed guide, somatic coach, collective trauma facilitator, and teacher / trainer who is deeply engaged in cultural transformation and collective healing. Her approach is informed by mysticism and principles of healing, nonviolence and social justice. Her lived experience, way of being, and ongoing dedication to her own individual, ancestral, and collective / systemic healing journey is the ground for all her work.
Rhonda primarily works with sensitive, deep-feeling people who feel the pull toward their radical authenticity. She offers somatic sessions, conflict transformation processes, and experiential classes. She also co-leads groups where people come together to address collective trauma on topics such as gender, race, or land.
Some examples people bring into the work
Healing from difficult or traumatic experience; resolving inner or outer dilemmas; aligning with what matters most to them; reclaiming a sense of empowerment, wholeness, and choice; having functional boundaries; releasing the weight of self-criticizing and self-shaming; learning to accept themselves; making peace with the past; connecting with soul gifts; expressing their creativity; aligning with purpose; reclaiming a sense of aliveness; deepening their spiritual practice; showing up more fully in their work, relationships, or parenting.
What makes this journey different
This journey includes your whole system: your physical experience and sensing, your emotions and what you believe about yourself, what you carry from your past and your people, what you’re longing for, your lived experience and interpretation of the world around you.
When you know how to connect with your natural humanness through your body, emotions, history, and longing, your connection becomes the ground which moves you forward. Your problems are a step in a process. What you need lives in a real, embodied, relational orientation toward what is already in you. What is already moving through you.
When you refine how you listen to your felt experience, a shift happens. You‘re not only inside the problem any more. You connect with your experience of what’s difficult not as a problem to fix, but as a fundamental signal that gives you powerful information. From there, your emotions begin to unfold meaning. Your choices become clearer. You find your own unique way forward.
It works because you discover what is available inside you both from your direct body experience and through relational mirroring, showing you how to be with yourself, to include more of yourself. You come to understand your own process. Where your body signals you, your feelings unfold meaning for you, and you choose how and where you want to express yourself. That learning doesn’t stay in the session. It moves with you into your daily life.
