Holistic Therapist & Ceremonial Facilitator
Over a decade of professional guidance in plant medicines, trauma therapy and holistic healing – rooted in decades of deep personal transformation.
My Story
My path to holistic therapist did not begin in a classroom, but through lived experience. I grew up in an environment where safety was scarce and learned at a young age to find my own way. Resilience and perseverance became my survival skills.
Life brought challenges that forced me to listen deeper – to my body, my pain and old wounds that needed healing. Through serious illness, a car accident and recurring depression, I found therapeutic support and later plant medicines like ayahuasca, which opened doors I didn’t know existed.
This journey transformed me completely and awakened a deep calling: to guide others on their own path of healing and transformation.
My Expertise
I have trained extensively in both traditional therapeutic methods and ancient plant medicine practices. My approach is rooted in compassion, safety and deep respect for each individual’s unique journey.
My work combines psilocybin-assisted therapy, Kambo ceremonies, breathwork, energy healing and trauma therapy. I am trained as a Reiki Master, Holistic Therapist and Kambo Practitioner, with decades of personal work with sacred plant medicines.
My Approach
I work from the heart according to the highest standards of care and professionalism. My sessions are not clinical or distant – they are warm, human and deeply supportive. I believe true healing happens when we feel safe enough to be vulnerable, seen enough to be honest and held enough to let go.
Everyone I work with receives: - A safe and loving space where you can explore without judgment - Personal and professional guidance tailored to your unique needs and based on years of training and lived experience - Compassionate presence throughout your entire journey
I don’t just facilitate ceremonies – I walk beside you. I hold loving space for your process, so you can safely open, feel and transform. Every ceremony is conducted with thorough medical screening, continuous support and integration guidance.
My Mission
I believe we are all stronger than we know. My mission is to help you remember that strength – not by becoming someone new, but by reconnecting with who you truly are.
Why I Do This Work
Because I know what it feels like to be lost – and what it feels like to find your way back to yourself, your strength and your joy. Every person who steps into ceremony with me is a reflection of my own journey.
From heart to heart. From soul to soul.
Love & Gratitude,
Diana – The Body Remembers
“We are more beautiful than we realize. I am here to help you remember that.”
Teacher & Practitioner | Omkaya & Spirit of Kambo
Michael is a teacher, practitioner, and facilitator within Omkaya and Spirit of Kambo. He carries the field with calm presence, integrity, and heart, creating a space in which people feel safe to slow down, open, and meet themselves honestly. His work is grounded, attentive, and deeply human.
His journey into plant medicine began after a life-changing accident. Michael started exploring the healing potential of natural medicines and conscious microdosing, not as an escape, but as a way to truly listen to his body, his nervous system, and the deeper layers of healing that Western approaches often overlook. This period marked the beginning of a new path, one rooted in responsibility, curiosity, and lived experience.
From there, his path unfolded naturally. Michael went on to work within several respected institutions in the field of holistic care and plant-medicine-informed support, where his understanding of the bridge between Eastern wisdom, indigenous knowledge, and Western healthcare continued to deepen. He holds a clear conviction that plant medicine, when approached with integrity and guidance, can play an essential role in the development of a more holistic and humane vision of healthcare in Western society.
His work is further grounded through his time in the Amazon, where he joined a jungle journey with Spirit of the Jaguar and The Peaceful Warrior. In a traditional setting, he worked intensively with plant medicines, moving through his own layers of healing, confrontation, and remembrance. These experiences were not about collecting knowledge, but about learning how to serve the work with humility, clarity, and respect.
Alongside his role as facilitator, Michael is a co-investor and co-builder of Onca Takara in Peru, where a new space is currently being developed for deepening, training, and ceremonial work. Within Onca Takara Organization, he plays a leading role in the Netherlands, supporting and expanding the Facilitator School and the Kambo Practitioner Academy, while remaining closely connected to the work in Peru.
Michael has a natural way of holding space. He reads processes with sensitivity and steadiness, without force or agenda, and guides people safely through whatever arises. His strength does not lie in techniques or titles, but in presence. And it is from this presence that he teaches.

Ethics & Integrity

The Setting
Your retreat takes place in a boutique ceremonial space in Amsterdam. The casual atmosphere is refined, quiet and welcoming. From the moment you arrive, the space invites you to slow down, soften and arrive fully in yourself. Everything supports a sense of safety, presence and inner homecoming.
The Journey
The day begins with a ceremonial Chocobliss cacao opening using 100% pure cacao from Peru. This heart-opening ritual supports grounding and clarity, gently preparing your system for the psilocybin journey.
The psilocybin session itself is held with continuous trauma-informed and somatic guidance. Meditation, breath awareness and a subtle sound journey are woven into the experience, all guided by an experienced female facilitator. Silence and support are offered in equal measure, always attuned to your nervous system.
After the journey, you are served high-quality, healthy vegetarian food, prepared with care to support your body, nervous system and integration. Every detail is offered with attention, presence and respect.
Safety & Screening
After expressing interest, you will receive a gentle intake questionnaire, followed by a personal video call. This is a calm, open conversation to meet each other, explore your intentions and ensure mutual alignment. Safety, clarity and integrity are foundational to this work.
Who This Retreat Is For
This retreat is suited for those seeking depth, inner peace and genuine transformation. Participants often come with themes such as anxiety, burnout, emotional blocks, numbness or disconnection, ADHD or OCD patterns, dependency patterns, major life transitions or spiritual awakening.
There is no performance here. No expectation to achieve or become. This is a space to receive, to feel and to remember.
Our Method
Our work is guided by the Onca Takara Foundation Method, a refined and integrative approach combining modern therapeutic insight with ancient plant wisdom. The method weaves together psilocybin-assisted therapy, trauma-informed and somatic work, subconscious reprogramming, inner child healing, shadow work, breathwork and emotional integration. Mind, body and spirit are approached as one intelligent system.
Integration & Aftercare
This retreat does not end when you leave the space. Integration support is included to help the insights and shifts gently root into daily life.
