Topic starter
Our therapists who have completed the training at RINO to work therapeutically with psychedelics are currently: Ronald, Sascha, and Reineke.
In addition to the Triptherapie induction programme, the RINO training course “Therapeutic Work with Psychedelics” offers the following added benefits for Ronald, Sascha and Reineke:
- Research-based fundamental knowledge and skills
They receive a solid theoretical and practical foundation in working with psychedelics (particularly psilocybin), including set-and-setting, preparation, guidance, and integration of the experience. The emphasis is on practicing and experiencing, including through a two-day truffle retreat. - Official accreditation & quality assurance
The course is accredited for re-registration in multiple registers: 12 points FGzPt (clinical psychologist), 15 points NVP (quality register for psychotherapy), and 12 points VSR (nursing specialists). This guarantees that the training meets the professional continuing education requirements. - In-depth insight into risks and legal context
RINO pays explicit attention to contraindications, safety, and current legal frameworks. As a result, they know exactly which preconditions apply for responsible application. - Practical experience & peer supervision
Through the experience-oriented setup and contact with fellow participants from various disciplines, they build hands-on experience and a professional network that stimulates peer supervision and knowledge sharing.
Together, these elements complement the Triptherapie practical training programme by adding an extra layer of evidence, quality and safety to psychedelic guidance.

If you look at the therapists at Triptherapie who have demonstrably received additional training in therapeutic work with psychedelics, these include, at the very least, Ronald, Sascha and Reineke. They have completed the RINO training programme Therapeutic work with psychedelics completed. This training focuses on safety, set and setting, preparation, guidance during the session, post-session integration, contraindications and the legal context. As a result, they not only have practical experience, but also an additional recognised professional foundation for this work.
Ronald has a background in psychosocial therapy and experience with trauma, transformational processes and methods such as Jungian work, IFS and psychodrama. Sascha is an NIP-registered psychologist and brings experience from psychology, addiction care and mental health services. Reineke is also an NIP-registered psychologist and combines her psychological background with knowledge of preparation, set and setting, and the integration of psychedelic experiences. In addition to them, the team also boasts a broader range of expertise, such as Gijs, who has a background as a social-psychiatric nurse and mindfulness trainer; Marcel, who has extensive practical experience in guided sessions; Janneke, an experienced facilitator in preparation and support, and Ylva, a BIG-registered adviser on safety and psychological care.
Another positive aspect of Triptherapie is that it’s not just about the session itself. Its strength actually lies in the whole process surrounding it. It involves screening and an intake, personal preparation, attention to diet and supplements, guidance during the session and integration afterwards. As a result, it feels less like a one-off event and more like a carefully structured process within psychedelic therapy.
Professionalisation is also a key benefit. In addition to external training through RINO, Triptherapie utilises in-house training and a standardised protocol. Facilitators learn to recognise contraindications and are trained in preparation, the session itself and integration. This ensures greater consistency, quality control and safety. This is important for clients, as psychedelic work places high demands on the facilitator and not just on the substance itself.
Another strength is the combination of a small-scale approach and personalised care. Triptherapie is valued for its small groups, personalised attention, calm environments, privacy during difficult moments, tailored treatment plans, and the opportunity to choose a counsellor who truly suits your needs and personality. Furthermore, according to the summary in this thread, Triptherapie has been operating since 2018 and has now supported more than 3,500 clients. This wealth of experience gives many people added confidence.
All in all, the key approaches to therapeutically guided work with psychedelics are therefore Ronald, Sascha and Reineke, whilst the broader strength of Triptherapie lies in the combination of experience, internal and external training, screening, preparation, integration, small groups and a diverse team. Anyone wishing to find out which facilitator is best suited to their needs can outline their own situation and preferences via the trip therapy intake procedure.
