Private Psychedelic-Assisted Intensive
The Private Psychedelic-Assisted Intensive is Soul Alchemy’s flagship experience—our most immersive retreat and the one offering the highest level of personalized care.
It is designed for those ready to work deeply with a specific emotional challenge, life transition, recurring pattern or personal intention within a private, confidential and highly supported therapeutic setting.
This is not simply a ceremony. It is a complete arc of preparation, experience and integration, carefully shaped around your personal history, needs, therapeutic goals and readiness.
Settle in, connect with Leonardo and ground your intention for the days ahead.
A carefully calibrated, low-dose therapeutic session held in a private, supported setting.
Time to reflect, process and translate insight into a plan you can carry home.
The process begins with a confidential psycho-emotional assessment by Zoom with a psychotherapist.
Together, we explore your mental-health history, current challenges, medications, therapeutic goals, previous experience and suitability for psychedelic-assisted work. This allows us to identify potential contraindications and design the safest, most appropriate approach for you.
You will then receive personalized preparation guidance to help you arrive feeling grounded, informed and supported—with a clear intention for the work ahead.
During your time at Soul Alchemy, you will be guided through a carefully paced and individually designed therapeutic process.
The medicine is not selected from a menu. Following your diagnostic and suitability assessment, the therapeutic team determines which of the traditions we work with—psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, peyote, Bufo Alvarius (5-MeO-DMT) or Jurema/Changa—is most appropriate for your history, intentions, previous experience and psychological and physical profile.
Each medicine has a distinct therapeutic application, duration, intensity, set of contraindications and ancestral context. Any recommendation is carefully explained and discussed with you before the retreat begins.
Your personalized experience may also incorporate psychotherapy, intention-setting, breathwork, somatic practices, guided shamanic work, nourishing food, nature immersion and private therapeutic integration.
Nothing is rushed or standardized. Every part of the journey—including the medicine, setting, preparation and integration—is shaped around you.
Integration is woven throughout the retreat rather than treated as an afterthought.
Quiet mornings, forest walks, time beside the water, therapeutic conversation and grounding practices create the space needed to process what emerges. You will begin transforming insight into something embodied—meaningful changes that can continue unfolding long after you return home.
We like to complement your medicine work with full-body support. Also known as The 7 Dimensions of Health, this foundational wellness framework is included in every Soul Alchemy retreat. It brings together sunlight and movement, conscious respiration, deep hydration, remineralization, oxygenation, detoxification and regeneration.
These elements are woven naturally into your stay through morning light, forest walks, breathwork, mineral-rich hydration, fresh cold-pressed juices, nourishing meals, ozone steam-sauna sessions and selected restorative cleansing practices. The guiding principle is simple: the right support, in the right order—helping your body return to greater balance, energy and vitality.
For guests who resonate with the Medical Medium approach, selected nutritional practices—such as morning lemon water, fresh celery juice, fruit-forward breakfasts, cold-pressed juices and selected Medical Medium smoothie recipes—can also be incorporated by request. This is entirely optional and adapted to your preferences, nutritional needs and individual suitability, offered simply to complement your medicine therapy work.
What's included$2,500 USD per person · $4,200 USD for two — all-inclusive.
This work asks for real honesty about readiness—which is why fit matters before you apply.
This list is general and not exhaustive. Your suitability is confirmed individually with a psychotherapist during your pre-retreat assessment.
Every guest must complete our confidential screening and assessment process.
Participation is not automatically guaranteed. Suitability, the therapeutic approach and the medicine are determined individually, with careful attention to your physical and psychological well-being.
This is a private experience for those seeking more than a temporary escape. It is an invitation to be supported through meaningful inner work—and to return home with greater clarity, connection and the foundations for lasting change.
To preserve the depth of individual care, we hold only two of these intensives each month.
“I arrived certain I knew what I needed to work through. Leonardo saw so much more than that, so much more precisely and tenderly than I expected.”
Camila S.“The preparation alone changed how I understood myself. Leonardo has a way of making you feel completely held, even before the real work begins.”
Daniel R.No. This is a gentle, low-dose therapeutic process rather than a high-intensity ceremony. The emphasis is on psychotherapeutic depth and integration, not on the intensity of the experience itself.
That's exactly what your pre-retreat assessment with a psychotherapist is for. Together, you'll explore your history, intentions and readiness, and arrive at a recommendation that's appropriate for you specifically.
We'll always tell you honestly. In some cases, we may recommend a different Soul Alchemy experience instead—such as the Private Detox Intensive or a Casa Soul Alchemy stay—or suggest working with your own healthcare provider first.
Yes. While the therapeutic process itself is always private and one-to-one for each individual, Casa Soul Alchemy can comfortably host up to four guests at once, across two queen rooms. You and your partner, family or small group can stay together under one roof, each moving through your own personalized 1:1 therapeutic process alongside one another.
