From our very first meeting, I felt safe, seen, and genuinely supported. Her guidance is professional, compassionate, and deeply attuned to the individual. The preparation helped me reconnect with myself and clarify my intention. During the inner journey, I was able to release emotional blocks and gain valuable insights into long-standing patterns. I felt completely supported throughout, allowing me to surrender to whatever emerged. The impact has been profound: I feel calmer, more confident, and more open\u2014in my work, in my relationships with loved ones, and most importantly, in my relationship with myself. Naomi has mastered her profession with exceptional skill, but above all, she is a warm and genuine person.

An initial Zoom introduction with Naomi led to a follow-up personal meeting, and at the beginning of October 2025 I checked in at the beautiful location in Vreeland to begin a personal journey that, just a few months earlier, had not been part of my plans. The reason was a series of emotional events that followed one another in quick succession, through which I noticed I was losing trust in myself. My inner compass was spinning, and the key to the chamber of grief was lost, I could no longer express, cry, or release what I was feeling. The reliable, warm welcome created a sense of safe containment, enriched with delicious food, a wonderful massage by a somatic therapist and rest, all gentle steps toward the unknown path ahead. I wanted to know as little as possible about what awaited me, so as not to influence the experience rationally. In that way, it truly became my personal journey, and what a journey it was\u2026 A deep physical connection, a seven-hour stay in the twilight zone, during which I felt a profound reorganization at a cellular level, and an overwhelming sense of trust returned. I entered this journey with a longing for freedom, to escape, to break free, and to regain trust. I arrived at a place where it became clear that freedom can also be found internally, not only through action. Doing nothing is also doing something. We had meaningful integration conversations, and Naomi\u2019s professionalism and experience guided me toward valuable insights. To this day, I draw strength from this personal gift. I have found myself again, can put into words what needed to be expressed, and genuinely enjoy my surroundings again. Thank you so much, breathe in, breathe out.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

I once found a childhood diary in which, at the age of ten, I had drawn a set of scales and written about my longing for balance. I described how confusing it felt to experience so many different parts within myself, with little space for them to exist, or the feeling that only one part was acceptable and that the others needed to change. It was this lifelong search that led me to Naomi and to the transformative power of inner journeys with her 3-month psychedelic-assisted program. From my very first journey, I was able to release so much, physical pain that had been held in my body for decades. With each subsequent journey, I was able to go a little deeper. Throughout every journey, Naomi\u2019s caring and trusted presence was always there. I felt supported, held, and gently guided, clear, warm, and always offering exactly what was needed in that moment. I feel immense gratitude and deep trust for the journeys I have been able to take under Naomi\u2019s guidance. She combines something rare: profound scientific knowledge with genuine warmth, empathy, and a deeply grounded presence. Her ability to be both highly professional and personally engaged is invaluable. I am deeply grateful that Naomi crossed my path and introduced me to this transformative work. As part of my Personal Leadership Coaching, we continued the work through Internal Family Systems (IFS) sessions. These became a natural extension of the integration process following my journeys. Although we met online, the experience felt remarkably close and connected. I seemed to access a deeper state of awareness, often accompanied by powerful somatic experiences and a different sense of time, or timelessness. Through the IFS sessions, I gained a much clearer understanding of the different parts within me and learned that they are all welcome. Naomi is consistently available and deeply committed to the process. Her presence allows whatever emerges during sessions to be explored, understood, and integrated over time. Her guidance feels safe, supportive, and trustworthy, creating the conditions for profound healing and deeply embodied insights. I wholeheartedly recommend both the psychedelic-assisted program and the IFS sessions. I wish everyone the opportunity to come this close to themselves and to feel so genuinely supported along the way.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Having spent many years working on personal growth, I wondered whether this experience would truly add something new. What stood out to me most was the exceptional care and attention throughout the entire process. From the first conversations and the thorough preparation to the private retreat itself and the integration afterward, everything was thoughtfully designed and beautifully organized. The peaceful location, the feeling of comfort and luxury, and having time entirely dedicated to myself made the experience even more meaningful. During the journey, Naomi's presence was exactly what I needed. She was there without ever being intrusive, allowing me to stay fully connected to my own inner process while knowing I was completely safe. Her warmth, professionalism, and extensive knowledge gave me a deep sense of trust from beginning to end. The journey itself was less about discovering something entirely new and more about gaining clarity and perspective. What touched me most was what happened afterward. In the weeks after the retreat, I experienced a deep inner peace unlike anything I had felt before. I reconnected with who I truly am and experienced what it feels like to come home to myself. Even now, when life becomes busy, I know that feeling is still there and I can return to it. It has given me a profound sense of freedom, trust, and inner stability. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to explore themselves on a deeper level. It is a true gift to yourself. Naomi walks beside you throughout the entire process with warmth, wisdom, and genuine care. She offers guidance without ever imposing anything, creating a space where you feel completely safe to discover your own path.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

With her you don't feel guided, you feel truly seen. Between sharp intuition, subtle humour and serious professionalism, she creates a space where growth is not only possible, it's inevitable. And yes, integration is not an afterthought here, it's a master discipline.

Although IFS had helped enormously, my trauma, grief and the myriad of other emotions still felt like a huge knotted ball that was hard to untangle in a meaningful way. I would pick at one knot in one session, only to have a completely different knot pull at my attention the next. It felt like I couldn\u2019t get things in an order to process. My therapist was open and supportive when I approached her about medicine assisted therapy. She knew Naomi through professional circles and training, which felt reassuring, alongside knowing that Naomi is both a psychologist and IFS therapist as well as a psychedelic therapist. I spoke with a few retreats and practitioners before finding Naomi. The difference was immediate. Her professional background is evident from the moment you speak with her. She combines deep knowledge and skill, with warmth, compassion and presence. She made me feel safe, seen and actually excited about the prospect of this journey. Naomi's process is thorough, informative and gentle from the start. I felt like I got so much within this experience from her, so much of her time, understanding and presence. Our communication through sessions, calls and messages in the lead up, all made me feel as prepared as you possibly can be when you're doing something like this for the first time. The experience itself was beautiful - all of it. The stay, the setting, the food and everything Naomi prepares before, during and after the session that makes you and this time feel so special. I was blown away by the detail and consideration put into everything for the session - the scents, the sensations, the comfort. After taking the medicine, the way things revealed themselves to me was magical. Magical in the sense that I got everything I needed, even when I wasn't aware I needed it - all information that felt important made itself known to me, it detailed itself to me in ways that it just was not able to before. It felt as though there was a clear channel between me and what I needed to understand. And everything else, that I thought was important before, simply fell away. It felt like love and warmth and purity. For me, the session itself was an eye opener, a moment of reset. It is the days and weeks after that are transformative. Something shifted that allowed me to process and understand huge amounts of information about my past and present, about my patterns and relationships. That big knotted ball softened, loosened and importantly lost so much of its grip. Perhaps one of the most important things I learned, was that it wasn't necessary for me to pick it all apart. It was not in understanding everything about my past that I would find all the answers. I had picked enough, and the answer now was to try to live. Months on from the experience and I see that it really was like years of therapy in one session. Your ability to look at information within and through this state still astounds me. I also see that a lot of what the session revealed was about who I am and what I care about at my core. Not just what has happened to me. And I think that message in itself is profound. It showed me that I am hopeful, passionate and that I care deeply about my family and friends. That my connections to them are strong, alive and more important to me than anything. That has never changed. These realizations were only made possible to me by the deep safety, openness, care and communication that Naomi harnessed. Deciding to go ahead with an experience like this can feel daunting - I was definitely nervous about the loss of control. But Naomi was the person for me. She carefully helped me navigate every step of this and I could not be happier that I got to be guided by her through all of it.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

I had already spent many years working on myself in different ways, but I still struggled to truly break old patterns and, deep down, believe that I was good enough just as I was. It is hard to describe just how life-changing these inner journeys with Naomi have been for me. I grew up with a mother who came from a family with a history of severe depression and suicide across several generations. This had a profound impact on my childhood. I carried some of that vulnerability myself and have also experienced periods of severe depression in my life. Over the years, I developed beliefs about myself that left me with very little self-worth. Deep down, I was still a small, insecure girl trying very hard to be seen. From the moment I decided to embark on my first psychedelic journey, Naomi and I were in close contact. We talked about why I wanted to do this, and she encouraged me to prepare through things like free writing, drawing, and making a collage. We then used what emerged to help shape a clear intention for the journey. Naomi prepared me extremely well. She showed me the space, explained what I could expect, and talked me through how the process would unfold. Her guidance during the journey itself was exceptional. Naomi has a way of making you feel completely at ease. She is fully present and responsive to you and what you need. Because we had spent so much time preparing together, I trusted Naomi deeply and was able to let go and surrender to the experience. I felt completely safe with her. When I became very restless later that evening, she offered body-based support to help me settle. She works with great respect and sensitivity, for example, she would never touch you without first asking permission. Everything is centered around you and what you need, and she adapts the process accordingly. The day after my first journey, for instance, we did breathwork together because that was what I needed at that moment. The support also continues once you go home. Naomi stays in close contact and is available by message or phone whenever you need her. If I became stuck during the integration process, she helped me find my way forward and offered ideas for exploring things further. She never told me what to think or what something meant; she supported me in finding my own way. I have now had three psychedelic journeys with Naomi, and each one has given me something profound. The first helped me find my way back to my heart. It opened a path back to myself and allowed me to truly embrace who I am and see myself with love and compassion. The second journey showed me that many of the stories I carried about myself were just that, stories. I didn\u2019t have to treat them as the truth. I could let them go. I was able to leave behind so many of the judgments and beliefs I had carried about myself for years. In the third journey, everything came together. For me, it was a journey of liberation. These journeys have changed my life. My relationships with the people I love have become much closer and more loving. I can relate to the people around me with greater love and freedom. Neither they nor I have to fit into a certain image anymore. They can be who they are, and I can be who I am. There is an incredible freedom in that. I know I would never have reached this without these journeys and Naomi\u2019s extraordinary guidance.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Even before the psychedelic journey began, I noticed that I was starting to look at myself differently. I discovered that I could ask myself questions I had previously overlooked, and that a greater sense of curiosity and self-compassion began to emerge. During the inner journey, I felt completely safe and supported. In that safe setting, I was able to look at myself with gentler eyes, without judgment, but with space for everything that was there. I saw and felt parts of myself with a sense of openness and compassion that I had never experienced before. One of the most important insights for me was realizing that I don\u2019t need to depend on my surroundings to find peace. That peace is already within me, and I can access it myself. This realization brought a deep sense of relaxation, both during and after the inner journey, unlike anything I had experienced before. I would wholeheartedly recommend this process with Naomi to anyone who wants to understand themselves more deeply and connect more fully with their feelings. Her unique approach, careful guidance, and warm presence create a safe foundation for profound inner work. A whole new inner world has opened up to me, and I feel I have only just begun to explore it. The insights and effects continue to unfold long after the journey itself, if you remain open to the journey within.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Some of these parts, such as my protectors, became very strong during childhood and were still active in my adult life. Through IFS, I have been able to acknowledge these parts and help them move into a role that fits my life better today. Recognizing both my parts and my Self creates more inner space and allows me to feel more connected to who I truly am. What continues to amaze me is how quickly and naturally you can access a situation or a part that wants to be seen, and how something can begin to shift once it is acknowledged and understood. Naomi guides this process, both online and in her practice, in a clear, grounded, and practical way. I felt safe exploring whatever emerged, and her reflections helped me understand my inner dynamics more deeply. She is an excellent therapist who creates a professional and safe space to explore whatever is ready to be seen.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

I had previously tried mainly physical approaches, such as exercise and physiotherapy, as well as seeing a psychologist, in an effort to get rid of my symptoms. What made this process different for me was Naomi\u2019s personal guidance. Before working with her, I tended to approach things with a \u201cquick fix\u201d mentality. I found the preparation sessions extremely valuable in helping me understand myself and my inner world better. They gave me a sense of safety and helped me develop a clear intention for the process. I came to realize just how important that sense of safety is. The IFS sessions helped me understand that I am not made up of one fixed self, but of different parts, each with their own thoughts and responses. I now see the tension in my body very differently. Rather than viewing it as a problem that needs to be \u201cfixed,\u201d I have learned to see it as a signal from my body that needs to be listened to. On Naomi\u2019s advice, I also consulted an MSK physician, which made the approach genuinely holistic. Instead of focusing on just one aspect, we looked at the bigger picture and discovered that there was also a physical imbalance in my pelvis. I found Naomi\u2019s guidance and feedback both supportive and highly professional. The written reflections after each session gave me clear insights into what had happened and what she had observed. Her more than 30 years of experience really shows in the way she works. When I look back at where I was and where I am now, a great deal has changed. I have more hope and a clearer sense of direction. I now understand that I have an active role in my own process and that moving forward also depends on the choices I make and how I respond, regardless of what happened in the past. The most valuable insight I have gained from this whole process is that the tension in my body can also be seen as a reflection of my own strength that I have not yet fully learned to use. It is closely connected to my beliefs about who I am and what I am capable of. My advice to anyone who has been living with long-term physical tension would be: make the investment in working with Naomi. Otherwise, it is easy for another few years to pass without really moving forward. The tension does not disappear overnight, but once you start taking the right steps, relief can begin to feel much closer.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Naomi is an extremely professional coach and the entire process was incredibly well organized. She really knows how to meet people where they are. The decision to go on such a private psychedelic retreat is not always easy. You ask yourself many questions, including those related to safety. Naomi designed this process so well that there was a great deal of trust from the very beginning, and at the same time, there was a sense of extreme professionalism throughout the entire process. She is a warm-hearted person who has a very good sense of what is needed and what you yourself need, both in the preparation and in the support and follow-up. She helps you to interpret and work things out. For me personally, it was a life-changing experience. I can recommend her without reservation and would like to emphasize that the added value for a desired change in one's own life depends not only on the substance, but also on the support of a good coach.

She prepares you thoroughly by inviting you to reflect on thoughtful questions before the session and by providing practical guidance to prepare both your body and mind. Good preparation really is half the work. During the session, she offers genuine personal attention and intuitively responds to what you need. In my case, the moment she gently placed her hands on my feet, and later held my hand, was what allowed me to fully surrender to the experience. She even found creative ways to stay close and continue taking notes about everything that was unfolding during my journey. The next day, we had a very insightful integration session. We created a beautiful visual summary of my experience, highlighting the key insights and themes that emerged. I still look at it regularly, and it reminds me of what I want to keep working on. She has also connected me with exactly the right people to support my continued personal growth, something no one had managed to do before. I am deeply grateful for that. If you are considering a private psychedelic retreat, I wholeheartedly recommend Naomi. She creates a safe, caring, and professional environment in which you feel completely supported. You certainly won't regret it. Since my first retreat, I have continued to grow and work with the insights that emerged during the experience. I would love to return for another session in the near future. From preparation to the retreat itself and the integration afterwards, the entire process is exceptionally well organized and thoughtfully guided.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

It is indeed a journey, not just an experience. My clear takeaway from the microdosing experience is that it helped me to reconnect to myself in ways that no other method has. Reconnecting sounds more trivial than it actually is, reconnecting to oneself is the only way to live in mental health. Throughout my process using psychedelics Naomi has been a trusted partner who gently and compassionately yet firmly supported me every step of the way. Naomi is a reliable expert in her field and most important of all, her humanity and highly professional dedication to her clients is a precious gift. Thank you for this valuable and wonderful journey together, every day I am benefiting from the fruits of inner exploration and transcending the barriers that need healing for me to flourish in life!<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Something in my brain shifted and is still shifting. I came to Naomi physically wrecked from stress (HRV under 30; pro athletes aim for 100) and a simple intention, roughly: accept the future and learn to appreciate the small things. Naomi's prep work, integration day, breathing and meditation exercises, the idyllic setting at her home in Vreeland, even her guest room, her Michelin-star-like cooking, it feels like something out of a fantasy novel. By the end of the process my intention was complete. Not \u201cworked on.\u201d Done. Today I accept what the world will become. I \u201cclock out\u201d on time. I can listen to my partner without twelve other tabs open in my head. I see people\u2019s anxiety and don\u2019t make it mine. I write high-stakes presentations in an hour as opposed to procrastinating for weeks. I went vegetarian. Beauty hits me harder. Nature, music, all the simple things I wanted to appreciate. I feel like a new person. Naomi has my lifelong gratitude. I quite seriously could not have had a better experience. If you're thinking about doing this in the Netherlands, go to Naomi. Zero hesitation.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Her therapy helped me explore my inner world, connect more deeply with myself, and get closer to my true feelings and desires. It also helped me uncover the questions that were already there beneath the surface. No other therapy or coaching has helped me as much in understanding who I am, what I truly want, and what I want to allow myself in life. It was clear to me that Naomi brings a great deal of knowledge and experience to her work, while making everything easy to understand and relate to. She has a natural ability to create a safe environment and build a genuine connection. When you work with her, you really feel that she is fully there for you and your process.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Naomi brings warmth, flexibility and calm, together with a great depth of knowledge, experience and intuition. Throughout the entire process, I felt personally supported, cared for and in very good hands. With her guidance, I was able to make an important inner shift: moving away from living mainly in my head and becoming more connected with my heart.

That is why I decided to participate in her private personal development program supported by psychedelics. What stood out to me throughout the entire process was the care, professionalism, and attention with which everything was organized. The preparation was clear and thorough, which meant I always knew what to expect. Even when things felt challenging or uncertain, I felt supported. I could always reach out with questions, which gave me a great sense of trust and confidence. The private retreat itself was exceptionally well organized. The peaceful setting, warm hospitality, and personal attention created ideal conditions for me to fully focus on my inner process. Following my inner journey, there was daily contact for a week. The integration sessions that followed were extremely valuable and helped me better understand my experiences and integrate the insights into my everyday life. Naomi\u2019s personal and written reflections regularly helped me look at myself and my process from a new perspective. I would wholeheartedly recommend Naomi to anyone considering this kind of inner work. She combines deep knowledge and experience with warmth, commitment, and genuine care. Throughout the entire journey, I felt safe, supported, and in highly capable hands.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\n\t
