Hanneke Schots

How do you "do" life? What does "being human" entail? Hanneke has always been intrigued by these questions. Her curiosity has led her on journeys — both in solitude and in groups — through inner and outer worlds and across countries, cultures, traditions, and practices, where the physical, emotional, mental, and energetic meet, interact, and influence each other. Psychedelic explorations have provided embodied insights and experiences that have had a significant role in her development.

Professionally trained in psychodynamic therapy and specializing in trauma and inner child work, Hanneke has built a vibrant therapy practice, including workshops and retreats, in the heart of Amsterdam. Her inclusive and holistic approach combines bodywork, breathwork, plant medicine, hypnotherapy, shadow work, and voice dialogue, among many modalities.

Psychedelics first sparked her interest in therapy, and now therapy has re-ignited her interest in psychedelics. Hanneke’s open curiosity toward all life paths, professional training, and personal experiences is what allows her to create loving, non-judgmental structures where people can explore themselves and find acceptance, love, and transformation.
