Psychedelic Coaching

Guiding you through your psychedelic healing journey

We are here to walk beside you on your path of healing, transformation, and self-discovery.

As experienced, trauma-informed psychedelic practitioners, we offer compassionate support at every stage of your psilocybin journey — from preparation to ceremony to integration.

In the lead-up to your psilocybin retreat, we help ensure you're grounded, informed, and emotionally ready for the experience ahead.

With deep experience in holding plant medicine ceremonies and creating safe, intentional healing spaces, we craft optimal conditions for you to feel supported and fully surrender to your process.

After the ceremony, we offer psychedelic integration coaching to help you make meaning of what arose — gently weaving your insights into daily life so the impact of the experience can continue to unfold in a lasting and sustainable way.

A holistic and trauma-informed approach to psychedelic healing

At MAGUEY, our approach bridges ancient wisdom and modern healing practices. Rooted in contemplative practice, ritual and ceremony, and nature-based knowledge, we blend these traditions with effective Western approaches to wellbeing, including psychedelic integration coaching, therapeutic tools, and personal development work.

While our psychedelic programs follow a structured framework, the care you receive is always individualized and trauma-informed. We tailor a suite of tools and modalities that reflect your unique emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs.

Each psilocybin retreat program includes modular support across all key stages of the journey: practical preparation, supportive instruction, one-to-one coaching, and guided ceremony time. This is complemented by opportunities for self-reflection, embodiment practices, and inner inquiry—so that your experience is both transformative and sustainably integrated into everyday life.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our psilocybin retreat programmes are thoughtfully designed for individuals seeking personal growth, emotional healing, or deeper self-discovery. Whether you’re exploring the therapeutic benefits of psilocybin or looking for profound spiritual insight, our retreats offer a safe, supportive environment for transformation.

    We offer both private psilocybin retreats and tailored group psilocybin retreats, welcoming participants of all backgrounds — race, gender, and sexuality are not a barrier to participation.

    However, our weekend retreat programmess are specifically designed for members of the queer community, ensuring a space of deep understanding and mutual respect.

    Our retreats are available to individuals over the age of 21, and all participants will undergo a health screening to ensure their safety and well-being during the journey.

  • At MAGUEY, safety is our top priority. While psychedelic retreats can offer profound benefits for many, they may not be suitable for everyone. To ensure that this work is aligned with each participant’s needs, all individuals undergo a health screening prior to the retreat.

    Our facilitators are certified members of the Guild of Guides Netherlands, adhering to its Code of Conduct and accountable to its framework. This ensures that our psilocybin retreats are conducted with the highest ethical standards and with your wellbeing in mind at all stages of the journey.

  • Our psilocybin retreats in the Netherlands are held in city Amsterdam for our private psilocybin retreats. For our group psilocybin retreats, we offer a variety of scenic and tranquil locations across the Netherlands, carefully selected to enhance your healing and self-discovery experience.

    If you have a preferred venue, your guide can also arrange to visit other locations in the Netherlands, ensuring that your psilocybin journey takes place in a setting that best supports your needs.

  • We offer a comprehensive preparation program to help you get ready for your psilocybin retreat with confidence and clarity. This includes practical guidance, supportive instruction, and one-to-one coaching tailored to your needs.

    You’ll be gently guided through reflective practices, mindfulness and embodiment techniques, and invited into deep inner inquiry—so you can approach your psychedelic journey with intention, grounding, and trust in the process.

  • After your psilocybin retreat, we provide a full psychedelic integration programme designed to support your ongoing healing and personal growth. This includes practical guidance, supportive instruction, and one-to-one integration coaching tailored to your unique journey.

    You’ll also be invited to participate in community-based integration circles, offering a safe and supportive space to continue your reflection. These resources help you integrate psychedelic insights into your daily life in a way that is meaningful, grounded, and sustainable.

  • Psychedelic integration is the process of making sense of a journey — emotionally, spiritually, and somatically. It's where the insights land and become part of your lived life. Without integration, the experience may remain fragmented. With it, healing deepens and transformation becomes sustainable. description

  • A psychedelic integration coach offers compassionate guidance before and after your journey. They help you prepare with clarity and intention, and support you afterward in grounding what emerged — whether that’s emotional release, spiritual insight, or personal growth.

  • Not at all. Whether this is your first encounter with psilocybin or you've had many psychedelic experiences, our facilitators will meet you where you are and offer support that's grounded, respectful, and attuned to your needs.

  • Yes. We run legal pilocybin retreats in the Netherlands.  We work with psilocybin truffles, which are permitted in the Netherlands and we operate our retreats within the remits of Dutch law.

  • Psilocybin mushrooms are illegal in the Netherlands, but psilocybin truffles — which contain the same active compound — are legal and safely used in ceremonial and therapeutic settings.

  • Both come from the same fungal organism and contain psilocybin. Magic truffles are the underground part, known as sclerotia. They are legal in the Netherlands and offer similar effects to mushrooms — deep emotional, spiritual, and psychological exploration.

  • This is not psychedelic therapy or psychedelic psychotherapy.

    What we offer is psychedelic-assisted self-discovery—a path that supports people in their journey from functioning to flourishing. We do not work with individuals diagnosed with complex mental health issues, and we do not diagnose, treat, or offer clinical support.

     

  • A trauma-informed psychedelic practitioner is someone who supports individuals through psychedelic experiences with a deep awareness of how trauma impacts the nervous system, behavior, and healing processes. Drawing on trauma-informed principles, they create a safe, respectful, and empowering environment that recognizes the complexities of trauma and prioritizes the client's emotional and psychological wellbeing throughout the entire journey — from preparation through integration.

    Trauma-informed psychedelic practitioners understand that healing is non-linear, and that deep transformation arises not just from the medicine, but from how safely the client is held before, during, and after the journey.

  • No. I work with people from around the world. Integration and preparation sessions are offered online, and in-person journeys and retreats are available for those who travel to the Netherlands.

  • Yes. Many people benefit from support even if they’re not sitting in ceremony with me. I offer standalone preparation and integration sessions for those working independently or with other guides, ensuring you feel supported at every stage.

  • Safety is foundational. That means clear communication, mutual agreements, and trauma-informed care. Your autonomy, choice, and boundaries are honored at every step — from first contact to final integration.

  • No, this is not microdosing. At MAGUEY, we work with medium to high doses of psilocybin truffles in a safe, intentional setting designed to support deep transformational healing and expanded states of consciousness.

    Microdosing typically involves taking very small, sub-perceptual amounts of a psychedelic substance regularly over time to enhance mood, creativity, or focus—without entering a fully altered state.
