Psilocybin group session for people living with cancer
With Evelien Hekkelman and Femke Mureau
January 28, 2027
A cancer diagnosis can take the ground from under your feet. We offer a small, closed group for people living with cancer: in treatment, after treatment, or living with it long term. Together we prepare, experience a one-day psilocybin session, and take time afterwards to make sense of what came up. A place to look at fear, uncertainty and what matters now, with others who know what that’s like.
The full program:
– Individual intake and medical screening (online or in person in Amsterdam)
– Group preparation session January 14th 2027 (online)
– Group psilocybin session 28 January 2027 (1 full day on site in Amsterdam)
– Individual integration session 29 January (online)
– Group integration session (online)
Why psilocybin and cancer?
Cancer changes more than your body. It can shake your sense of who you are, your relationships and your trust that things will be okay. Often that weight stays long after treatment ends.
We offer an invitation to pause, turn inward and reconnect, with yourself and with others who understand.
Psilocybin has been studied for people with cancer at Johns Hopkins and NYU, and more recently in group settings. Many participants described lasting shifts: less anxiety and low mood, and a renewed sense of meaning and connection. The research is still young, and everyone’s experience is their own.
This event is not a treatment or therapy. It is a carefully held group experience, with preparation together, a session day with psilocybin and time for integration afterwards..
