Alan Da Silva

Alan Da Silva (38) is a highly skilled Psychedelic Facilitator with over a decade of experience working with psychedelics and their potential for personal development, emotional healing and self-discovery.

He has been mentored by industry-leading voices in the psychedelic retreat sector, as well as Indigenous shamans from the Huni Kuin tribe of the Brazilian Amazon. His approach bridges these two worlds, combining modern psychedelic research with the depth and wisdom of traditional ceremonial work.

Over the years, Alan has developed his own intuitive approach to facilitation, drawing on Jungian psychology, somatic practices, parts work, and meditation. He senses when to guide, when to gently challenge, and when to offer a compassionate presence while the experience unfolds.

He is the founder of Alegria Retreats and has personally guided more than 300 people through private and group retreat experiences, maintaining a high standard of professionalism, safety, discretion, and client care.
