Sarah  Dekker

Overview

Sarah Dekker is a facilitator, coach and psychedelic guide who co‑runs Compassionate Self, a practice based in Kalmthout, Belgium. She guides adults through self‑inquiry and personal development using Internal Family Systems (IFS), Nonviolent Communication and mindfulness, and she integrates plant medicines such as psilocybin truffles into therapeutic contexts. Her work is rooted in creating safe, non‑judgmental spaces where clients can explore inner parts, heal trauma and transform limiting beliefs. Sarah’s approach stems from her own journey with ayahuasca in 2018 and subsequent training as a certified Nonviolent Communication trainer and IFS practitioner; she combines bodywork, breathwork and ritual to foster grounded presence and connection.

Best for

Sarah supports adults who feel stressed, depressed, addicted or in conflict with themselves or others. She works with clients seeking to overcome perfectionism, procrastination, people‑pleasing, relationship difficulties and grief, and she helps those dealing with eating issues, addictions and trauma. Her coaching appeals to individuals looking for private psychedelic truffle journeys or online sessions to deepen self‑awareness and break unhelpful patterns.

Approach

Sarah’s therapeutic coaching blends IFS, Nonviolent Communication, developmental trauma knowledge, dyad work, mindfulness and plant medicine training. Sessions are typically 60 or 90 minutes via Zoom and focus on exploring different parts of the self, releasing limiting beliefs and fostering self‑leadership. She offers private psilocybin truffle sessions with thorough preparation, guided journeys and integration to help clients process insights; these journeys incorporate breathwork, body‑based trauma work, ritual and music to create a safe, supportive environment. Throughout, she prioritises ethical practice, set and setting, and ongoing support before and after psychedelic work.

Sarah provides individual therapeutic coaching online and in person, offering single sessions for new clients and packages for ongoing work. Her truffle journeys are available for individuals or pairs, with pre‑session preparation, a full‑day guided experience and follow‑up integration; she also co‑facilitates weekend group retreats with accommodation, breathwork and coaching. Clients are invited to book discovery calls to discuss needs and are placed on a waiting list when her calendar is full.
