I am a transformation catalyst. I am here to break trail and show you how amazing life can be if you live it by your own rules. I am an Out of the Box Thinker, who speaks her truth no matter how different to the norm it might be. This way of thinking (which definitely comes from my gut and not my head) helps me to find the most creative solutions to your most entrenched problems. I will ask the right questions in the right moment and will guide you to find your own answers deep within so that the clarity you have been searching for is clearly there.
I am a powerhouse who will help you to throw off old conditioning, release stuck emotions, fully claim your power and create a meaningful life that was always meant for you by unapologetically stepping into who you really are. I blend therapeutic, coaching and shamanic tools with my intuition and show you possibilities you have never even heard of.
I have a Masters degree, speak three and a half languages and have travelled and lived in many different places in the world (many exotic ones such as Haiti, Costa Rica and Bali). I have created and published The Ghetto Tarot that was featured in international media outlets and worked as an award winning photographer before becoming an expert in the field of consciousness and a psychedelic guide. After training with shamans as well as western psychologists and researches in the field of Psychedelics, I have led more than 200 people through psychedelic journeys and have witnessed extraordinary transformations in the shortest amount of time.
My biggest life lesson has been to overcome a depression and heal highly dysfunctional family patterns. I know what it is like if life feels pointless, everything seems stuck and your relationships are just not working out. But I also know that it is possible to create a life that you LOVE waking up to each morning. And I can teach you how. When I am not guiding my clients into deep transformations, you can find me in my little garden speaking to my plants, dancing to African or Haitian music, spending quality time with my friends and their adorable children, taking long baths or cuddling with my very best friend Kerrie.

If I tell you that what is written on the Inner Shift Institute website is truly what you will get, would you believe it? I was hoping for some of that. Years of therapy and family problems brought me to a point from which I saw no way out. Neither for myself nor for my loved ones. I came with one intention to solve one of many problems and with a bit of hope that this trip would bring something. However, what I encountered was a complete surprise at the extremes of each scale. And THIS SHIFT which takes you from one side to another, would not have happened without the wise leadership of the entire team. During 6-day stay program prepared by Alice and the team, each stage played its most important role. Without the knowledge and open heart of the team, each stage of it, preparation, management, integration would be only a fleeting event. Alice, Jeanne, Cony, Amber, Caroline you accompanied me on my journey and your presence with your gifts was the key to the transformation of me and the problems I was struggling with, a transformation that happens even after I returned home. I felt within myself the solution to the problem I came with - no matter how strange it may sound, this feeling is the essence. I wholeheartedly recommend it...to the world!

From the heart
When I started my quest to find a guided psychedelic experience, A Whole New High (now Inner Shift) felt right immediately. They were responsive and provided information and guidance. Working with an established agency that employed seasoned practitioners was extremely important to me. Supporting a women owned and operated business was icing on the cake. When it came time to choose the practitioner, I knew that I would be in good hands with anyone. I was lucky enough to feel a connection with Karlijn through reading her biography and then watching a video of her explaining what could be expected throughout the process.
I appreciate having the opportunity to work with AWNH, now Inner Shift, but am profoundly grateful to Karlijn for her expertise, her light, and her grounding nature. Her experience and wisdom helped guide me through a life changing journey. Karlijn’s energy and unwavering trust in this work provided the space and tools I needed to move through deep rooted barriers. With Karlijn’s help, I was able to face fears and ultimately surrender to the process. I do not feel that words are enough to describe my gratitude to this agency, for believing in this therapeutic modality and then employing women like Karlijn, who give themselves to this work so that people like me can find deep and profound healing.

HIGHLY SAFE AND PROFESSIONAL FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH PLANT MEDICINE
Had my first-ever experience with plant medicine (psilocybin) with Caro and the Inner Shift Institute, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The entire team, from booking to trip guidance and integration, truly managed to create the best possible setting for a first-timer.
The preparation was thorough and I was sent a bunch of useful resources well in time before the trip, all very helpful for a soft introduction to the world of psychedelics. This included a whole video course, a preparation video, book recommendations, and so forth.
Caro was a wonderful guide throughout my experience. The preparation session was great, and she was thorough, analytical, and emotionally sound when guiding me in setting an intention for the trip. The result was great confidence and a calm, clear mind ahead of the experience.
For anyone feeling a bit of nervousness surrounding plant medicine, Caro is a wonderful person to have around! She created a comfortable, safe, light, and professional setting from the minute we met, and ensured the same atmosphere throughout the experience. To me, this resulted in complete trust, surrender, and readiness both ahead of, during, and after the trip.
The integration session took place a few days after the trip, granting me the time needed to thoroughly reflect upon the experience on my own first. During the integration, Caro truly helped me both make sense of my visions and connect them to my intention, my patterns, and life itself.
I am ending this experience with increased clarity and a strong motivation to continue my inner work. I truly recommend the Inner Shift Institute to anyone aiming to enter the world of plant medicine and its healing powers.
