About this Retreat
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.
My background is in (neuro)psychology and I studied the effects of meditation on the brain as part of my PhD at the Vrije University of Amsterdam. To this day, I conduct scientific studies on meditation, breathwork, and psychedelics.
Personally, I've been deeply immersed in traditional meditation and healing traditions, as well as modern integrative body-centered psychotherapy and psychedelics. I am working as a freelance psychologist and process facilitator (with and without psychedelics).
As an empath I have walked many paths myself.
I love to be present and hold space to allow real transformation and honest change. At Alegria Retreats I am responsible for the psychological screening process, being a facilitator at the ceremonies and supporting our participants in their integration process after their psychedelic experience.
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.
Details of this retreat
Welcome !
My name is Nuria, I'm a mother, movement artist, trauma informed care practitioner and Co-Founder of Alegria Retreats.
Having guided over 100 individuals on their transformative journeys, I am now devoted to creating a powerful and nurturing space specifically for women. I am happy to walk you through the process for this beautiful journey.
A psychedelic journey is a very profound, vulnerable, and transformative experience that can help you connect more deeply to your essence and gain clarity on blockages.
Yet, I understand that for some women, it can be challenging to truly trust and let go—especially if life experiences have led to feelings of mistrust, particularly towards men.
This session offers the opportunity to reconnect with your inner world, get out of constant fight or flight mode, and step into a more empowered, aligned version of yourself. Psilocybin opens the door to a profound exploration of your true self, helping you uncover clarity, peace, and new energy for a new chapter of your life .
This private retreat provides a safe, nurturing space to explore the profound healing potential of psilocybin, guided by a trauma-informed facilitator who understands the importance of creating an environment where women feel deeply supported, seen, and held. My approach blends nearly a decade of hands-on experience, indigenous wisdom, and cutting-edge protocols from psychedelic therapy, enhanced by a focus on inner child work and realigning to the unique power of tapping into your essence.
