Our Approch

Holistic Therapist • Neurodivergent Coach • Shamanic Practitioner • Educator • Author

Rian Pelati is an internationally trained holistic therapist, life coach, neurodivergent support specialist, and author with over 14 years of professional experience and more than 25 years of spiritual and shamanic practice. Raised in a spiritually diverse household, Rian was exposed from an early age to Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Wicca, and indigenous spiritual traditions, shaping a lifelong respect for both grounded psychology and the unseen worlds of energy, ritual, and meaning.

Rian is the founder of Pelati Consulting and Asperger’s South Africa, a supportive and educational community serving neurodivergent individuals, families, and professionals. As an autistic and ADHD individual himself, Rian’s work is deeply personal as well as professional. He understands firsthand the challenges, strengths, sensitivities, and brilliance that come with neurodivergence, and creates spaces where clients are supported without being pathologised.

Professionally, Rian is a fully certified Master Life Coach, Mindfulness Teacher, Meditation Instructor and Coach (Mastership Diploma), Neurodivergent Support Specialist, and Reiki Master Teacher. His work supports neurodivergent adults, parents, caregivers, and families in building sustainable careers, healthier relationships, emotional regulation skills, and a deeper sense of self-trust. His mindfulness and meditation work is trauma-aware, practical, and nervous-system focused, designed for real-life integration rather than spiritual bypassing.

Rian holds multiple diplomas awarded with distinction in Counselling, Clinical Psychology (Asperger’s-focused), and Cognitive Psychology, and is a Fellow of the Institute of Therapies Management (London). His integrative approach blends evidence-based methods such as CBT, NLP, mindfulness, and positive psychology with somatic awareness, coaching psychology, and holistic support.

Alongside his psychological and coaching work, Rian is a long-standing Shamanic Practitioner, Trainer, and Counsellor, walking an eclectic earth-based and indigenous path. He has completed extensive initiations and training including Munay Ki and Nusta Karpay rites, Shamanic Theology, sound and energy healing, and ceremonial earth-based practices. His spiritual work is always offered ethically, with consent, discernment, and integration into everyday life.

Rian is an ordained minister and has been a registered Marriage Officer with the South African Pagan Rights Association (SAPRA) since 2010, legally authorised to solemnise marriages and perform inclusive ceremonies across belief systems, cultures, and spiritual paths.

Rian is also the author of three published books: Ho’oponopono for Coaches and Healers, Unlocking Potential: A Teacher’s Guide to Asperger’s Syndrome, and the dark fantasy novel The Hollow King. His writing reflects the same integration found in his practice — blending psychology, spirituality, lived experience, and storytelling to explore healing, identity, and transformation.

His work is accredited through respected international bodies including the Complementary Therapists Accredited Association (CTAA), International Association of Therapists (IAOTH), American Union of NLP, CPD, and affiliated professional organisations. These affiliations reflect a commitment to ethical practice, ongoing education, and high standards of client care.

At the heart of Rian’s work is a grounded and compassionate mission:

to help people — especially neurodivergent individuals — live with clarity, confidence, dignity, and self-compassion, while honouring both their nervous systems and their inner worlds.

FAQS

What is life coaching, and how does it work?

Life coaching is a dynamic and collaborative process focused on helping individuals identify and achieve their personal and professional goals. It involves a series of one-on-one sessions with a trained life coach who provides guidance, support, and accountability. Coaches use a variety of techniques and tools to help clients gain clarity, set actionable goals, and develop strategies to overcome challenges. The coaching process is highly personalized, tailored to each individual's unique needs and aspirations, and it empowers clients to make positive changes in their lives.

How long does a typical coaching engagement last?

The duration of a coaching engagement can vary based on individual goals and needs. Some clients find value in a few sessions focused on specific issues or challenges, while others may engage in longer-term coaching to achieve more substantial personal or professional transformations.
