Together with my wife Patrycja, I have set up our private practice specialised in offering therapeutically informed support for psychedelic experiences.
We have both been offering psychedelic support full time since 2018 and have worked together and individually with hundreds of people. As Patryjca was trained by MAPS we have based our approach on the lessons learned from that training though we have adapted and improved our work based on our years of experience.

Based on the MAPS approach, which is inspired by models like Hakomi and IFS we decided to learn these. So I am trained as a IFS practitioner and a Hakomi therapist and since 2023 I also help IFS trainings as a program assistant.

We feel IFS is a very potent model to use in support of psychedelic experiences and together with Nancy Morgan we were able to publish an article about our ideas in the Journal for Psychedelic Psychiatry.

I am also part of the UK psychedelic Network (PHP) since its foundation in 2019. Together with this group of people with a health care background I help organise and guide legal psilocybine group retreats here in the Netherlands.

Before working with Patrycja in our private practice I have been working with an Ayahuasca group retreat centre for about three years where I was trained and able to gain a lot of experience.

I also have bachelors degrees in both Physics and Design.
