Maximize your microdosing experience
Do you want to make a change in your life but don’t know how?
(Rediscover) the healing power of microdosing. It is used worldwide as a medicine against depression, cluster headaches, and ADHD, as a means for consciousness development, personal and spiritual growth, and for increased effectiveness and productivity at work. It’s also a way to live a more relaxed, lighter, and happier life.
Microdosing coaching is for people who:
have depression, burnout, or PTSD
and want to live a lighter and happier life. And are willing to be helped through a course with a natural psychoactive medicine such as hallucinogenic truffles or mushrooms. And want me as their loving and effective coach.
want to live more from their heart
and for whom it is really time to take those steps that make the soul happy. People who allow themselves to be pushed in the right direction with the help of microdosing and me as their guide. Without listening to the inner voices that we all have that can paralyze us so well.
are stuck and don't know why
Or do know, but don’t know what steps to take or are not yet brave enough to take them.
want to get the most out of life
People who know that life is short and want to realize their dreams. Privately, but also at work.
want to start microdosing safely
and want professional help with the practical aspects, such as: the right product, the correct dose, and the course to follow.
want to work more creatively, productively, and effectively
like people in the business world with a creative or problem-solving profession.
“I feel more passionate. I feel more energized. I feel more focused and enlisted. I feel more.”
How Does a Microdosing Program Work?
Most people opt for a guided program of 3 sessions. In addition to all the practical aspects of microdosing, I can also go deeper with attention to coaching on the intention and integration, thereby increasing the chances of real transformation. Experience shows that clients achieve more lasting results, find their sweet spot sooner, and work more focused with microdosing.
Over 4 weeks, you will work on your own, under my supervision, with a microdosing course following a certain protocol. The protocol and amounts to follow are different for everyone. Before starting, we will review together what is the suitable substance for you, the best protocol, and the right dose. During your 4-week program, we will meet for 3 coaching sessions. We will discuss how you are doing, with your set goals or intention, how microdosing is going, what insights you have gained, what you are struggling with, and how we can further improve or integrate this.
During the sessions, I use mindfulness, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), you will receive homework and an (online) microdosing diary to keep track of your results and so that I can look along and help you, if necessary, with fine-tuning your dose, protocol, and intention.
Appointments can be live or online via Google Meet.
Intake Form
Before we start, there is first an extensive intake. It is important for me to know why you want to microdose, whether you have a medical history, what complaints you have at the moment, and what medications and supplements you are using. We investigate whether microdosing is a suitable tool for you and your wishes.
Session 1 (Consult)
If microdosing is your tool and there are no contraindications, then we start the sessions! During the first session, you will get all the practical information on how to start microdosing. Together we look at the most suitable microdosing substance and with which protocol and dose you will start. You will receive tips on how to find your sweet spot, what to keep in mind (food and other points of attention), and also tips about your intention and the right integration. After this first consultation, you start microdosing independently at home.
Session 2
Two weeks after the first consultation, follows the second appointment. We evaluate the microdosing so far and fine-tune where necessary. We discuss any challenges you have encountered. We also look at your intention (is it the right one?) and how you can integrate the insights gained into daily life.
Session 3
Two weeks after the second session, the third and final session takes place. We evaluate again, I coach you on your intention and on further integration. Usually, by this time, people have a good idea of the phases you go through during a microdosing process, how you recognize the phases and insights and successfully go through them and how you turn the insights gained into action for real, sustainable transformation. From here you can continue independently. If you still need more coaching, that is always possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Would I Use a Psychedelic?
Of course, you don’t have to. That first. But if you want to make big strides, it can be a very powerful therapeutic tool or tool for your personal and spiritual development. It is one of the most powerful and fastest tools that take you directly to your subconscious. Thoughts or behaviors that are unconscious or hidden become easier and quicker to see. More than just with coaching or therapy alone.
With What Substances Can You Microdose?
You can microdose with almost all (classic) psychedelics. Think of microdosing truffles, microdosing mushrooms, microdosing ayahuasca, microdosing LSD, and microdosing with cacti. You then microdose respectively with a low dose of psilocybin (truffles and mushrooms), caapi (ayahuasca), Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), or mescaline (hallucinogenic cacti such as San Pedro or Peyote). Of which the truffles, 1P-LSD, and caapi are legally available.
Can Everyone Microdose?
There are a number of cases where microdosing is discouraged:
-In people with schizophrenia, psychosis susceptibility, paranoia/suspicion, or severe anxiety disorders;
-Persons under the age of 18;
-Pregnant women or women who are breastfeeding
Why Should I Get Coached While Microdosing?
Microdosing and coaching are the golden combo. The psychedelics give you a lot of insights and then it’s up to you to do something with them. Many people run into not knowing how to apply this in their daily lives. It may be that you can’t yet place the insights or don’t know what they mean or what you can do with them. With my coaching, I mirror you so that it becomes clearer for you and help you integrate all these insights and lessons into your life. I challenge you to get the most out of it. I am your support, your mirror, and your coach. Or maybe you don’t know how and where to start in the wonderful world of psychedelics. Then I help you on your way! So you can optimally experience the positive effects.
Which Psychedelic is Most Suitable for Me?
That depends on several factors; including your personal preferences, your wishes, your complaints, and ailments. During the coaching, this will be addressed and I will advise you on this.
Does Microdosing Go Along with Medications and Supplements?
Because it involves very low amounts of hallucinogens, microdosing often goes along with medications and supplements. The most popular psychoactive substances for microdosing are: psilocybin from truffles or mushrooms, LSD, and 1P-LSD. There is a list of medications and supplements that do not have negative interactions. You can check if your medication or supplement is on the list.
For psychedelics that contain MAO inhibitors, such as ayahuasca, more caution is needed. Especially in combination with other medications. In large amounts, these must not be combined at all with certain medications (such as other MAO inhibitors and SSRIs) and they do not go together with certain foods (for example: fermented foods, certain cheeses, red meat, and alcohol) and supplements.
Psychedelics are still psychedelics, so caution is advised. Also, little is known about long-term use. Therefore, it is advisable not to do a cure for more than 10 weeks, then take a long break of about 3 or 4 months (or longer), and use microdosing as a temporary tool. Consult your doctor if in doubt.
What About the Dosage/The Sweet Spot?
In microdosing, finding the right dosage is crucial to optimally experience the positive effects. This is very personal and is called the sweet spot. This is very precise and if you go over it, you will encounter challenges during microdosing. Want to know more about this? Check out this video.
What Risks are Associated with Microdosing?
Overall, the classic psychedelics, like magic mushrooms or truffles, LSD, and DMT, are among the safest drugs. Even safer than alcohol, weed, and tobacco.
These substances are not addictive in the traditional sense of the word. You cannot become physically dependent on them. But as with everything, it’s wise not to go overboard. Psychedelics can make you feel really good. Something we all want. Therefore, see it as a powerful, but temporary tool.
People with bipolar disorder may benefit from microdosing during the depressive phase, but better not microdose during a manic phase as the mania can be intensified.
In people with anxieties, microdosing can intensify the anxieties. And in people with paranoia symptoms, the paranoia and suspicion can increase.
Check out this information from the Global Commission on Drug Policy.
Is Microdosing Legal?
A number of psychedelics are legal including magic truffles, the caapi from ayahuasca, and 1P-LSD. A number are not legal, such as LSD and DMT and mescaline from cacti like San Pedro. You can legally buy a grow kit for magic mushrooms online. But as soon as they grow, they become illegal. In small amounts, the use of psychedelics for personal use is tolerated. The Microdosing Coach only works with legal substances.
Is the Psychedelic Included in a Program?
No. Together we look at which psychedelic is suitable for you. The Microdosing Coach has a lot of (legal) substances in-house making it quick and easy for you to start. The Microdosing Coach only works with legal means. See also the webshop.
I Want to Microdose at Work. They Are Mind-Altering Substances. Isn't That Dangerous?
In some professions, I advise against microdosing, for example, if you are a pilot or a professional athlete. In these professions, drug tests are regularly carried out.
If you do not belong to these professional groups and you want to microdose during work, it is important to find your own sweet spot. Once you have found it, then the substances actually increase your mental alertness, focus, and responsiveness. It is advisable to be guided so that you can microdose safely and prepared during work.
It also depends on the work you do and what your employment contract says. Doubtful? Contact me.
I Am Pregnant or Breastfeeding. Can I Microdose?
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, microdosing is discouraged. The research is not yet so far that we know what it does to your (unborn) baby.
Do You Take the Psychedelic Every Day?
That depends on the substance. With most, you follow rest days. To prevent habituation, you leave 1 or 2 days in between. The most suitable protocol for you will be discussed during the coaching.
Can You Expect Side Effects?
In general, psychedelics have little to no side effects. Sometimes sensitive people experience mild nausea or stomach discomfort when taking psilocybin. Sometimes people get tired from microdosing or they get headaches: after all, you are intensely engaged in your personal development. That takes energy!
Does Microdosing Have a Placebo Effect?
Does microdosing really work? That’s a question I often get. There is currently still a lot of research being done on microdosing, but current findings suggest that the effects of microdosing go beyond just placebo. Studies point to changes in neurological processes and neurotransmitters that may be related to mood, cognition, and creativity. Although more research is needed for a full understanding, it appears that microdosing can indeed have real physiological and psychological effects, in addition to any placebo effects. Check out the reviews on my website or social media for microdosing experiences of others who have gone before you.
Can I Eat and Drink Everything During Microdosing?
In principle, you can continue to eat and drink everything. However, eating healthily is best. And alcohol and coffee can influence microdosing. Preferably do not drink alcohol during a microdosing course. And caffeine is less of a problem. Read the blog about caffeine. Maybe it’s obvious, but we’ll mention it here anyway: no other drugs during this phase. If you still want to take a full dose of a plant medicine, you need to stop the microdosing at least 3 days beforehand and after the full dose, it is only useful to restart microdosing 2 weeks later. But less is more! Be mindful of the use of these sacred means.
My Approach
I have had the privilege of safely coaching many people using psychedelics, including in the corporate world. In addition, I have completed various trainings, courses, and workshops, including those at the Microdosing Institute and the Mind Foundation.
My style is spiritual, playful, heartfelt, while also being to the point and results-oriented. I listen without judgment and work with great passion.
I use mindfulness and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy). The principle of ACT is that people are better off embracing their thoughts and emotions rather than trying to change them. It has been proven that ACT is an effective treatment for numerous conditions or simply to feel better.
My practice is in Amsterdam South, but I also offer remote coaching via Skype or Zoom.
