About the Teacher

Why study with them?

Founder of A New Day Retreats.

After experiencing the deep transformation from my first psilocybin journey in a therapeutic setting, I have made it my goal to create A New Day Retreats. This has meant continuing my own personal journey with psychoactive plants, both on retreats and personally. I have also completed several courses with different providers on the safe use of plant medicines (see below for details). I have been working with a local retreat centre helping to guide retreats and one day group sessions for even more hands on experience so I can provide a safe space for healing and growth.

I hold a Masters of Arts in Anthropology and a Diploma in Counselling. I am a trained massage therapist.


I hold the following certificates: "Understanding Psilocybin Effects Neurobiology and Therapeutic Approaches", "Psychedelic Counseling - The Foundations of Trip Sitting", "Internal Family Systems and Psychedelic Therapy" , and I am working towards a certificate in "Healing Trauma" by Peter A. Levine, PhD, as well as "The Transpersonal and Psychedelic Practitioner Certification" which includes 3 in-person facilitator's training sessions in the Netherlands, to be completed early 2024.

I was born and grew up in Denmark and I have been fortunate to have lived in many countries throughout my adult life, and now I call Spain my home. I speak English, Danish, French and Spanish.

A personal aim for me is to master the combination of being both soft and strong, qualities I believe are important to lead a meaningful and impactful life. I yearn for a shift in our communities and societies that will curb our current epidemic of depression, anxiety and other mental disorders, and with A New Day Retreats I hope to make a small difference to individual lives, so that people can commence and continue their own healing and growing and go back to their families and communities and make a difference in their individual ways. Systemic change begins with individuals, and to me it seems pretty obvious that we need a change of direction. And I believe deeply that plant medicine can help guide us all. Read More
