A Multidisciplinary Approach to True Healing at Our Ayahuasca Center in Peru

Founded and led by native Amazonian shamans, Takinuna unites the power of ancient plant medicine with professional psychotherapy, offering a profound and holistic path of transformation.

Here, ceremonies are just the beginning. Each retreat includes guided psychological integration to help you understand your visions, process emotions, and bring the medicine’s teachings into everyday life.

Ayahuasca Healing Guided by Experienced Amazonian Shamans in Peru

Takinuna was founded and is led by native Amazonian shamans with decades of experience in plant medicine and healing practices. Their role goes far beyond leading ceremonies — they accompany every step of the journey with dedication, intuition, and ancestral knowledge.

Our shamans guide each ceremony through sacred ícaros — healing songs that direct the energy and intention of the medicine. But what truly sets them apart is their involvement beyond the ceremony. They hold personal conversations before and after, helping you understand the symbolic language of your visions.

They are also skilled vegetalistas, deeply knowledgeable in Amazonian healing plants. After ceremonies, they may recommend personalized treatments using herbal infusions, vapor baths, tree resin poultices, and other traditional remedies to support your unique healing process. Learn more.

Psychological Integration During Your Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru

Healing that Lasts: Guided Integration with Psychotherapy

The work with Ayahuasca doesn’t end after the ceremony. What truly transforms lives is the way you integrate what emerges.

At Takinuna, all our retreats include professional psychological support, led by Florencia Ferrari — a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Art Psychotherapist (MA, Roehampton University, UK) — who guides participants in group integration sessions.

This allows you to understand what was revealed, process difficult emotions, and give structure and meaning to your experience — so the transformation continues long after the retreat ends.

What makes Takinuna unique is the balance between ancestral knowledge and therapeutic care. We don’t just hold ceremonies — we hold people.

Our team walks beside you, before, during, and after each ceremony, making sure your healing journey is safe, deep, and grounded. Guided by truth and simplicity, transformation becomes real during an Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru. Learn more.

Real Stories of Transformation

Genuine experiences from those who have walked the healing path at Takinuna Healing Centre.

“I didn’t expect that my first Ayahuasca retreat in Peru experience would be just excellent. I had read many posts saying that it might be scary or evoke many traumatic experiences for the first time. At first, I was worried that I would be scared, but during the whole process I felt completely safe.”

“My name is Jose Trujano, and I am Mexican. I want to share this beautiful experience in Peru in July 2023. Seeking my path on both a personal and business level, I approached Iquitos to find something I was missing. What I found at Takinuna went beyond expectations — healing, clarity, and reconnection.”

“I just returned to my country after having this experience, and I am already thinking about coming back as soon as I can. It is a very professional center, where they take people and their problems very seriously and do everything to help you. They are the only center in Iquitos that offers psychotherapy. Highly recommended.”

“My name is Alondra Alvarez, and I am Chilean. I waited a long time to muster the courage to face this experience. I once believed that paradise did not exist, but in the Amazon rainforest, I discovered peace, beauty, and a deep love for life. Thank you, Takinuna, for helping me remember who I am.”
