“I have been working with Rita for over two years. I suffer from PTSD and anxiety since experiencing significant trauma after the kidnapping of my daughter. I have been to many therapists over the years and unfortunately never found a good ‘fit’ for myself until I met Rita. I have been surprised many times by the depth of her intuition and sense of exactly what I needed at the time. Her expertise is honed in many areas of therapy. Rita is professional, gentle and intuitive. One of the many things I respect about her is that she’s never been shy to call me out on issues that I need to clarify. I would recommend her to any of my friends.”

“I love that the concepts and ideas that you share in our sessions stay with me throughout my day-to-day life. I find myself aware of my actions and choices in a way that I haven’t been in a very long time and this is helping me to remain present, really present, in moments that I would usually try to avoid. I feel like I am coming out of a fog and am starting to see possibilities and opportunities that I would have ignored or written off, or simply not seen before.

“I feel like you speak my language – you’re so relatable and honest and that allows me to be honest and accepting of myself. I love that you can spot my bullshit from a mile away and that you gently point it out so that I feel safe to let my guard down and STOP. I find myself looking forward to our sessions because even though I have no idea what I want to address in the session, you always seem to know exactly what I need to learn. Thank you for helping me see that my emotions are valid and necessary, for helping me find the woman I’ve buried under years of fear, and for showing me that I have so much more to discover and do.”

-Carole

“I just wanted to touch base briefly with a huge thanks and some positive feedback from my heart.

I really look forward to and enjoy our sessions together, and always feel relieved in some way afterward. You are one of the first people in my life who has opened up the possibility of healing from past traumas feel actually do-able and empowering. I was trying to think of after our session today, how I can learn to better call myself on my own ego weaknesses without feeling offended and I realized that you are the perfect model for this, you have helped gently raise and massage the ego into awareness while showing that it doesn’t need to be offensive or something to be ashamed of. You do this treading lightly and compassionately, putting yourself ‘out there’ everyday, and gently challenging people like me to see past the hurt and pain, and I truly respect and admire this skill.  I genuinely thank you for your honesty, continued patience with me, and genuine compassion, as it helps me to learn and model how to provide this for myself. Light and love today.”

"In my 20+ years of participating and offering group medicine gatherings, Rita’s Women’s Retreat stands out as magnificently exceptional.  Rita and her team weave a delightful, deeply congruent somatic experience that respectfully, but assuredly, invites inner transformation. There is nothing that cannot be held in kindness and gently healed in this profound container. A deep bow to you all.”

- Tricia

"Rita is a world-class facilitator of somatic group healing work. In my life there have been very few people, who have been able to navigate my inner protectors to help me heal from childhood trauma. Rita's presence, intuition, knowledge, and experience allowed me to drop into myself and heal yet another layer. I feel extremely fortunate to have worked with her and her compassionate team."

- TM Women’s Weekend Participant

“Rita curates the most beautiful, authentic, sacred and safe space for healing and self-inquiry. She brings her full and complete presence in combination with her open heart to ensure every participant feels seen, heard and supported as they enter a realm of vulnerability and transformation. Rita has a rare and unique ability to “tap in” and guide participants through their layers in order to bring forward their true essence of self. Throughout this journey, I was able to be witness to my own ego and the “story” of what I tell myself I am and need to be. I experienced an ego death of sorts and freedom from my own conditioning through absolute trust and surrender to the experience. It was magical!”

"As a mental health practitioner in the United States navigating the fast-evolving use of psychedelic medicine in the field of mental health, I find there is an overwhelming sea of seminars and certification programs being offered.

Brilliant Healing (BH), with Rita Bozi is unlike any training currently available for those working with psychedelic medicine. Bozi is a Master Clinician in Somatic Therapy and a deeply soulful guide with decades of experience supporting psychedelic medicine journeys. BH is a unique immersive year long course of study in a small group cohort, including 3 weeks of in-person en-vivo practice. Starting with a rigorous academic curriculum including the study of Polyvagal, developmental trauma, and attachment theories, these theories underly the embodied learning of somatic-based therapy. Understanding the applications for somatic therapy in psychedelic medicine changes exponentially the potential for a more integrated healing with psychedelic medicine. Whether you are a mental health clinician looking to find best practice for working with these medicines or someone involved in any phase of supporting a medicine journey, this program is essential to providing your clients a deeper and more integrated healing with psychedelic medicine.

This program provides a clinically grounded, deeply intimate, and soulful learning experience. "

"Rita’s ability to show up as her authentic embodied self creates a space for her students to show up as their true selves. Her ability to coregulate and co-create a sense of community has supported my ability to love myself, my loved ones, and my clients for what they have lived through. Her incorporation of lived experience, scientific knowledge, and experiential activities has supported my ability to practice from a lens of embodied empathy. These generous teachings have not only changed my practice as a professional but changed how I navigate all parts of my life. Words cannot express the value of these trainings and the depth of knowledge gained from sitting in circle with these beautiful souls."

– EL Trauma Therapist

"Led by Rita Bozi, this training presents a pioneering approach to medicine-assisted facilitation. Groundbreaking in its ability to be firmly rooted in neuroscience while also being intuitive, embodied, and profoundly humane. No other program matches its depth of understanding and ethical preparation for navigating the psychedelic renaissance. From the perspective of both a seeker and a guide, this training is the most impactful thing I have done for myself and for my clients. "

- Jesse King, RCH

"This was my third professional training in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, and my first time training with Rita. I already hold two certifications in the field, but I can say with clarity and deep gratitude that the experience she curated within this lab was the one I had been yearning for.

Rita’s training offered not only a rich and grounded theoretical foundation in developmental trauma, but also the essential ingredient so often missing -an embodied experience that allowed the teachings to land in the heart and nervous system, not just the mind.

The container was woven with profound integrity and exquisite attunement. I felt deeply held and safe at every step. What set this training apart was the invitation to slow down and truly savor the texture of each moment, each sensation, and to explore the landscapes of our inner world with reverence and care.

What I witnessed and experienced was a rare level of relational attunement. The pace, presence, and depth of the space allowed me to access a stillness that continues to ripple through my integration process. This was not just a training, it was a transmission. I carry the resonance of this experience in my cells. And I look forward with genuine anticipation to continuing this path of learning and transformation with Rita."

"It is impossible to do Rita’s teaching justice in words composed with my left hemisphere. To be able to stay in her field and receive her extremely intuitive transmission, performed with precision and timing, filled me with hope for this world and the healing of trauma. Her wisdom goes as wide as it goes deep. She has a rarely seen ability to condense and cut the fat of so that the transmission is clear, individualized within the students group field and at the same time applicable for all. Her deep theoretical knowledge of somatics, brain function, right brain to right brain learning in connection and healing in relation is seamlessly interwoven with somatic meditations, dance, touch practices and other modalities. She truly is a dancer in the realm of human connection, healing and trauma. A stunning performance of embodied empathy. I can highly recommend Rita’s teachings to anyone interested in true healing. This is it!!"

- Maria Lindholm, Participant Swedish Lab 2025

“The Lab was an artfully crafted container for deep embodied learning to flourish.

Rita's skill in weaving theory and somatic practice together synergistically is exquisite and essential in optimizing a learning experience that I can only describe as deeply alchemizing; felt in the cells of the body, transformational and inspiring. Without a doubt, Rita's productions are unparalleled by any other learning program I've undertaken in the realm of psychology and therapeutic intervention. I call them productions to give reverence to the safe learning container she created for us, one that was relational, collaborative, and responsive; necessary qualities for healing, exploring pain, and repairing ruptures ~ foundational in any therapeutic space.”
