With Deon, you always feel like you are in safe hands which allows you the surrender needed for the healing to take place. His experience shines through with every sentence he speaks and he will always know exactly what to say to help you piece everything together and free you from the negative mental prisons we all form from our life experiences. I feel forever blessed to have met this healer and have him in my life journey of liberating my soul. Thank you Deon!!

Working with Deon enabled me to confront severe childhood trauma and its enduring influence on my sense of worth. His psychological insight, depth of experience, and sensitive guidance established the trust I needed to engage with profoundly painful aspects of my past.
Three months later, the impact extends well beyond the session. I feel a deeper sense of safety within myself and a significant shift in how I understand and value myself. Deon brings exceptional discernment and humanity to this work. His guidance has been transformative, and I recommend him with deep gratitude and confidence.

I've sat in more than a dozen ceremonies with Deon over the years. Most were facilitated directly by him, and in all of them he played some counselling or oversight role, particularly in the Huni Kuin ayahuasca ceremonies. In every one, I've seen the same experience, empathy and insight. He has a real ability to home in on blockages and bring them to the surface in a way that is both assured and reassuring. You feel you're pushing yourself, but you know you can, because Deon is there.
I've known him for more than ten years, and I've seen the results he gets. They are exceptional. He is a master at what he does, and I recommend him without hesitation. Jump in and experience Deon.

When I encountered deep loss and grief from the suicide of my son, every aspect of life came undone and I felt unable to cope with anything. Having Deon as a therapist, experiencing his facilitation and integration of psychedelic therapy has saved my life. The safety I experience in therapy with Deon has set me on the path of working with myself inside. The most useful tools I take from this therapy relate to identifying what is causing disturbance inside of me. As I work with what is not ok with me inside, I practice releasing/letting go of the cause and I observe myself using these tools and persistently cultivating the ability to be open and receptive to the reality of life as it keeps coming at me, no matter what is going on.

Combining doctoral-level training with extensive clinical experience, he applies a rigorous, highly intelligent approach to cognitive and behavioral transformation. His clinical insight fundamentally reshaped my cognitive framework, decision-making processes, and long-term strategic outlook. I offer my strongest endorsement for his clinical acumen and transformational methodology.”
