WARNING! This process has the real possible side effects of acute onset access to authentic self, self-love, self-acceptance, and chronic internal peace. Not recommended for people who enjoy living with constant stress or anxiety.
Nicole provides a welcoming environment within which to explore deep emotions and she is a loving witness to the change that follows. I spent over 10 years in traditional talk therapy, exhaustively reading self-help books, and still felt that something was out of reach. Something deep inside wanted to be explored. I was very resistant to try this method and I'm so glad I trusted Nicole. She helped me progress at my own pace. The most difficult part was helping my mind relax and feel comfortable listening to what my emotions were sharing. That's the real power of the process and the medicine helped me get through my initial resistance. Whenever I felt like I wasn't doing it "right", Nicole reassured me to trust the process. At first, I felt embarrassed when her seemingly simple questions opened me up to experiencing deep grief. I got comfortable with it quickly because these were always such transformational experiences. It felt like a bottomless well, and in the end, those tears just needed to be shed. Thank you, Nicole, for teaching and helping me through that! Now, I'm able to work through and achieve significant breakthroughs on my own.
It is hard work to look deep inside and the results have been life changing. I wish everyone had the interest and opportunity to know themselves in this way. The world would be a much better place.

My time with Nicole was truly transformational. With her guidance, I was able to release, in a safe and gentle way, difficult emotions that I had been suppressing for years. If you’re someone who feels disconnected from your body and emotions, Nicole’s practices will help bring you back to a balanced state. I can’t wait to work with her again.
SKYE W | BOULDER, CO
I'm truly astonished at the results Kambo is creating in my life! I'm a survivor of childhood sexual abuse that happened at multiple ages, including very young. What I didn't know until Kambo is how much of my life I've been living in a dissociated state. Through sitting with Kambo and learning to be with myself through the discomfort it brings, I noticed that I felt more integrated within myself, over time. Kambo helped bring me back into myself. After a Kambo 3x3, I felt huge shifts in my somatic embodiment.
Overall, I feel more calm and more at ease. I am not in my head so much. I can actually notice when I'm feeling in my body now - pleasant feelings and more uncomfortable ones. I have more internal capacity and inner security. I'm more willing to ask for what I need and expect to be supported.
Honestly, this is one of the most profound healing modalities that I have found for the specific trauma I am healing. I couldn't be more grateful to Nicole for the way she holds this sacred medicine and those of us healing with it. With gratitude, also, to the Cocama people and these beautiful frogs.

My experiences with Nicole have been deeply transformative, opening, and healing. As someone who has spent a lot of time in therapy and practices as a trauma therapist, my expectations are high. I am careful to choose practitioners who can support me in taking my healing and personal development to the next level. Nicole has introduced me to new ways of accessing natural wisdom that feel soul piercing and awe inspiring. Our sessions are not always easy, but my trust in Nicole allows me to go deep in order to unlock stuck energy and tension stored in my body so that I feel lighter in the end. I am so grateful for Nicole and not only do I embrace our continued journey together but I am constantly referring others to work with her!

If you’re thinking about seeing Nicole, just do it. She and her land are pure magic. I have been working with therapists and energy workers for years, working with Nicole is different. Being in her presence has allowed my deep seated pain to feel safe enough to surface. I’m letting go of lifetimes of familial patterns. I understand myself on a more intimate level now and know my journey with her will continue. I feel the freedom arising on the other side of all this old pain. Thank you, Nicole, for helping me heal and integrate! I’m so grateful for you!
CATHERINE T | MIAMI, FL
A friend of mine referred me to Nicole as someone who would provide a very safe space for guiding me through my first kambo experience. I battle with a lot of chronic illnesses and wanted to see what kambo could do to help. Nicole went beyond my expectations in making me feel safe and knowledgeable about what to anticipate with the treatment.
After my first treatment, I found I did not have to continue taking my thyroid medication since it felt like ‘too much’ and gave me a headache. I got bloodwork done 2 weeks after the kambo and it showed that my thyroid levels were in the normal range and I was still losing weight without taking the medication!
Two months later, when I was back home in Florida, I got a 2nd kambo treatment from someone who also graduated from Tribal Detox and 2 weeks after that I found that the medication I was taking for managing my skin/hormones also felt like ‘too much’ and decided to lower my dosage. I can’t wait to see what my next bloodwork shows and how a future 3rd kambo treatment will stack health benefits for me!

I’m in the process of divorce and am also healing a wound around expressing my truth. I've been feeling pressured and uncertain and had been experiencing a low-grade anxiety that lurked under the surface.
I saw Nicole for somatic work followed by an Akashic Records reading. The somatic work revealed the root of the wound as a deep-seated shame, and the Akashic Records reading helped uncover a soul lesson that was related.
Working with Nicole had a beautiful and important impact on my life and process. She helped me remember my body’s wisdom and channeled information from my records that helped me better understand how to show up to this major transition and to life in general.
Our session together gave me a beautiful how-to that felt helpful and doable. My anxiety feels resolved, and I feel certain and comfortable with new ways to move forward.

The whole experience, from start to finish, was so amazing. I personally want to make this part of at least a yearly tradition / journey for me. If you’re thinking that this is the next step in your journey, and you’re considering going out to Colorado to spend the weekend with Nicole, I really can’t recommend it enough. It’s amazing and transformational.

I went into this experience with an open mind and heart. I knew that I didn’t have any major trauma or PTSD to uncover; however, I had skeletons, secrets, and insecurities; a deep-rooted sadness and pain that began in my youth. Something that I tried burying for years; reasons unknown.
This retreat brought me to an understanding, a realization, and I was able to let go of some of the heaviness I had been carrying for years. It was a mental and emotional reset. An awareness. It was extremely peaceful. It was beautiful. I highly recommend psychedelic therapy to anyone suffering with depression, addiction, anxiety and PTSD. It's a life changer.
HARRY H | Denver, CO
Working with Nicole has been a life-changing experience. For most of my life, I suffered with depression, dissociated from my feelings, and never truly had an open heart to give or receive love. I've learned more about myself than I could have ever imagined on the journey.
Growing up with a support system that wasn't emotionally available, I was unable to process my own emotions in a clear or effective way. Experiencing life in a toxic society, I was subjected to several events that were stored inside me as trauma. As a first-responder, I also developed PTSD from stress on the job.
Working with Nicole has allowed me to fully access my true feelings, some of which I hadn't felt in decades and others I've never felt before in my life. For years, I felt like a robot, not having much emotion, going through the motions and just existing in the world without much purpose. I didn't know why I was so depressed, but being in the medicine space allowed me to tap into the most intimate and dark places of my mind that I was fearful to see face-to-face. My life will never be the same after my experience with Nicole.

I had my first Akashic reading with Nicole and let me tell you, it was a treat! I had been feeling insecure about some collaborations and through the reading, Nicole guided me to understand that the experiences are actually pivot points for me to quantum leap into who I am becoming. And this meant releasing the safety I felt whenever I take part in other people's projects. My soul is meant to beat to its own drum, because Nicole held me in a sacred space, I felt I could do this and let go of the me who wouldn't. Whereas in my daily life, my ego would have popped in and resisted and I wouldn't move forward.
I also received guidance for how to embody my intuition more deeply with specific practices.
Nicole takes great care in her connection to the records and with her loving heart I felt held. With this love and embrace, I could explore my shadows and the truths I hadn't been able to see. Thanks Nicole! I highly recommend Nicole for reading your records and guiding you through deeper self exploration. Expanding your life this way feels supportive. Do yourself a favor and have a reading!
