About this Retreat
As Co-Founder and CEO of Alegria Retreats, I am a purpose driven leader, dedicated to my mission to support people finding their way back home to themselfes.
A strong curiousity about the fundamental questions of life has lead me on the path of psychedelics. In the last 9 years they have become a powerful ally in my personal evolution. They have helped me to heal trauma, reprogram negative patterns, deepen my spirituality and tap into my highest potential.
I see our work as an act of service which I treat with integrity, humbleness and mindfulness while being aware of our big responsibility. I am dedicated to this work full-time and always researching and evolving with the times.
Over the years I have deeply immersed myself in altered states of consciousness and studied a wide range of methods of „inner work“ like eastern spirituality, jungian psychology, hypnotherapy, neo-shamanism, NLP, parts work, meditation etc.
I intuitively use these tools in combination with psilocybin to help you get to the root of your condition and activate your self healing mechanisms. Always taylored to your specific needs, preferences and pace.
I consider myself a student of brazilian indigenous traditions that have teached me the importance of sound during a psychedelic journey. Playing music has become my main tool to support and deepen a profound experience.
My clients say I have a grounding and reassuring presence which allows them to let go and surrender during a journey. I will give you the right impulses that allow you to get to the layers of the experience that create the most meaningful impact in your life.
My biggest reward is seeing people open their hearts, reconnect with their power and feeling that sense of inner freedom and joy.
Hello I'm Nuria, I'm a trauma-informed coach, somatic guide, mother, and co-founder of Alegria Retreats.
Through my extensive work in trauma healing and inner child integration I have developed a deep understanding of how early experiences shape our subconscious patterns and how we can rewrite them to create lasting change.
For over 8 years, I have supported more than 200 people, on deep journeys of healing with sacred plant medicine, weaving together ancestral wisdom and modern therapeutic tools.
My own path—from a challenging childhood to touring the world as a dancer and immersing in practices like Yoga, TRE, and Breathwork—taught me how to transform pain into strength & purpose.
I’m here to help you gently release emotional and physical blockages, reconnect with your truth, and access the healing power that already lives within you. Before, during, and after ceremony, I offer a steady, nurturing presence—meeting you with softness, intuition, and strength when it's needed most.
My work is grounded in compassion and guided by the belief that you are capable of deep, lasting transformation—supported by the ancestral teachings I’ve received from indigenous communities in Mesoamerica and Brazil.
Through working with many different individuals on a holistic level, I find it fascinating that if you are willing to change and face your truth, it is possible to create a completely new life that feels more aligned with your values and potential.
As a Psychedelic facilitator I am deeply commited to guiding individuals through their personal transformations with psilocybin, helping them heal, reconnect with their bodies, and step into their fullest potential.
As Alegria's admin assistant I will be in touch with you throughout the whole process and always available to answer your questions.
I love being in service and before I could hold space for others, I had to walk this path myself:
I first tried the conventional route - earning a master’s degree and pursuing teaching - only to realize it wasn’t where I belonged. My search for something deeper led me across the world, immersing myself in holistic healing, and ultimately to psychedelic medicine. These sacred plants allowed me to release anxiety, reconnect with my feminine energy, and step into a life of alignment, and self-love.
With a background in education, yoga, reiki, and self-concept work, I integrate somatic practices and subconscious reprogramming to help others step into their power with clarity and confidence.
As a facilitator, I bring a grounding presence that makes you feel safe, seen, and deeply supported even in challenging parts of the journey. From the first call to post-retreat integration, I hold space with warmth, patience, and a deep trust in your ability to thrive.
My approach is intuitive and adaptable, guiding you through deep transformation while helping you rewrite old narratives and embrace lasting change.
I meet you wherever you are - with positivity and deep care.
" Inner Freedom and peace is not a state to reach - but a daily choice to make."
I am here to help you to make that choice as your personal psychedelic guide and your rock of safety. My mission is to free people from anything that hinders them to live a deeply fulfilling and gratifying life in harmony and bliss.
This mission has led me on the path of psychedelic work and manifests in my approach to facilitating your Psilocybin Experience.
With A strong and grounding presence my aim is to help you answer the most critical / crucial questions in life:
• What is my Potential?
• How Can I find my path?
• WHO AM I?
As a son of a Ghanian father and a German mother, I grew up with uncertainty about my own identity the question of - who am I?
It has guided me to explore myself, Travel the world and seek deep self-discovery with plant medicine.
On this path of self exploration I learned many skills and made many experiences, which I will offer to you with great respect as a tool box for your own journey. The way I work within groups is to serve anybody with love and respect to create A sense of safety.
I bring my whole force to any ceremony and u will feel it in the form humour, high energy and a never ceasing smile on my face.
You’ll feel my care and interest in your transformation before the ceremony where I support you with encoruragment and inspiration for new ways and decisions.
After the experience I support you to bring your insights into tangible results and reach a lasting transformation during the integration process.

About My Approach
In my work with psychedelics, both in preparation and integration, I bring together many years of hands-on medical experience, the latest evidence-based research, and a deep respect for indigenous traditions as well as the wisdom of earlier generations of psychedelic therapists.
My approach is grounded in the humanistic psychotherapeutic tradition, characterized by compassionate presence and respect for each person’s unique story and individuality. I understand how our earliest relationships shape the way we think, feel, and behave today, and how profoundly trauma can affect both body and mind. Yet even beyond trauma, we all carry many different, and sometimes conflicting, parts within ourselves.
In my work, I welcome this inner multiplicity and support the process of discovering, understanding, and integrating all these aspects of the self.
For me, growth is a collaborative journey toward self-compassion, deeper understanding, and healing.
The path is rarely short or simple—but it is the only path worth walking.

What makes Alegria Retreats unique?
1. Expert & Heart-Centered Facilitation
You’ll be guided by someone who understands your process, meets you with respect, and genuinely cares about you. While our process is structured and systemised, we understand that this is an emotional experience that requires deep empathy and humanity. Our facilitators are trained to hold space for your unique story, your pace, and your personal boundaries, creating the conditions where your nervous system can fully relax and allow the experience to unfold.
From first contact to final integration, you’re held by a support that knows how to disappear when you don’t need it and show up exactly when you do.
2. A Very Safe and Effective Dosing Method
Rather than beginning with a single overwhelming dose, we guide you through up to 3 carefully calibrated psilocybin doses in one session. This gradual dosing method which is unique among European retreats, helps your mind and body open in stages, allowing you to get accustomed to the psychedelic effects while taking you step by step deeper into the experience.
3. Live, Intentional Music
Each ceremony is supported using live sound as a tool for emotional release, insight, and guidance. This is not a playlist. It’s an intuitive soundscape that brings together healing frequencies, ancient healing chants, meditation sounds and indigenous music that uplifts your spirit.
4. Bridging the Best of Both Worlds
Our team brings together Western therapeutic expertise, somatic technics and indigenous ceremonial training, with a focus on subtle, timely interventions. By making use of the most useful concepts of these different approaches we have a wide range of tools to support you navigate difficult moments and release emotional blocks.
5. The Psychedelic Coaching Approach
We don’t leave the process up to chance. During this journey, our focus is to help you notice patterns, limiting beliefs, and rewrite the narratives that have been shaping your life. Psilocybin is not a wonderpill but a very powerful tool when you actively work with it and have experienced guidance by your side.
Our intention is for our guests to leave Alegria not just with insight, but with a sense of clarity, relief, and a renewed connection to themselves that lasts long after they return home.
