“It’s hard to put into words the things that Hannah has done for me. I had the honor to work with her at Holos and it was the beginning of my rebirth to my higher self. Hannah is an exceptional practitioner and incredible human and overall the salt of the earth.
It was a huge honor to work with her, as she transformed my life and is allowing me to live the best life I’ve ever lived. I appreciate everything she’s done for me.”

“I’ve been working with Hannah Blake since early 2021 and the impact she has had on my life cannot be measured. From non-medicine work, specifically somatic dance and movement therapy and other nervous system regulating modalities - to hands-on work going deep with sacred plant medicines - Hannah knows to navigate the human mind and heart, and knows how to walk people back home to theirs. I’ve known many people who have worked with Hannah in various healing modalities, and she always works within the highest vibrations of integrity, and her work comes from a pure place of care and love for humans and the planet. She is also a brilliant poet, who in post-medicine work containers helped me unlock my creativity and begin writing poetry for the first time in my 30+ years. And I haven’t stopped since.”

“How do I describe someone as special as Hannah? How do I describe what a gift she is. The container she holds as she performs her ceremonies is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. My experience during a psilocybin journey with her should be the gold standard by which all journeys are created.
It started with our virtual sessions and a very in-depth intake. There was full transparency. I felt held from the first moment I talked with her on the phone. That only intensified on our virtual meetings and when I met her in her sanctuary in Oregon, my body felt safe and completely at ease. I felt held from the moment I talked with her on the phone.
Doing parts work and somatic work during my three days with her in allowed for such healing and rebirth. She was 100% present throughout all of our time together. She has given me the biggest gift in my life, which is to live free of the shackles that prevented me from living my life to my fullest. She healed both holocaust trauma, as well as divorce trauma that no other journey could heal. I can’t wait for my next journey. I fully recommend her. I will never do another journey without her.”
Karen Cahn, Founder of ifundwomen
“Hannah transformed my life. Before joining her group program, I was stuck in a rut during my healing journey. While I had made progress with cognitive behavioral therapy and an SSRI, various triggers and situations would overwhelm my nervous system, causing anxiety, panic, paranoia, and more. It was manageable, but it certainly wasn’t the life I wanted.
When I finally was introduced to Hannah and her science-based approach to psychedelic healing, I decided to give it a try, but I had no idea what to expect. I didn’t have any preconceived notions, which probably worked in my favor. To my astonishment, I experienced a nervous system reset, neuroplasticity that enabled me to establish simple and healthy habits, and a brain that functioned significantly better than before. An unexpected consequence was that I naturally stopped taking my SSRI. If you’re struggling to move through trauma and have exhausted various approaches, call Hannah. She will help you.”

“Hannah and Claire made me feel extremely safe and secure from the moment I walked in the door. As someone who has struggled with trusting others my entire life, this feeling of trust felt a bit foreign to me, but I leaned into it and am so grateful that I did. The format and programming of the House of Somaya perpetuated this feeling of trust and security from the moment it began. The property itself is beautiful and grounding.
Through the help of Hannah and Claire, I was able to release past trauma and find peace around areas in my life in which I never thought I would find resolution in. It felt like 30 years of therapy in three days. Even more impactful than that actually.
The trauma resolution alone would have been worth the experience, however I experienced something even more transformational to my baseline state. After the experience, the fibromyalgia pain I have had for over ten years was released. My neck and shoulders have softened. The range in which I can move my neck has been restored. The aching, always-on pain that I experienced for ten years is gone. I was in a state of shock during the retreat, and this feeling of shock is still lingering weeks after, as it has now been three weeks since the retreat and I am still pain-free.
I am wildly grateful. Hannah truly cares and it was evident in her response to the benefits I received. She rejoiced with me. The experience has led me to trust others while still being discerning, and to be able to trust myself more fully. Hannah truly changed my life and I will forever be grateful for her.”

“As a successful serial entrepreneur who has founded 11 companies, I have spent years navigating the highs and lows of leadership and business, often at the expense of my own emotional well-being. After experiencing years of talk therapy to address the traumas I had accumulated, I found myself at a crossroads. Despite not being depressed, I felt a pervasive lack of joy in my daily life. It was during this time that I was referred to Hannah Blake by a trusted MD who recognized the transformative power of her work.
Before the retreat, we completed two preparation calls that provided me with a clear framework for what to expect. However, nothing could have prepared me for the profound impact the retreat would have on my me. Attending the retreat at the House of Somaya was nothing short of a revelation. What I experienced was not merely the birth of a new self, but rather the awakening of an intimately profound awareness—a connection to the infinite pool of love that resides within me.
The traumatic events of my past are still present, yet their emotional weight has been lifted. The wild, adventurous spirit that fueled my entrepreneurial journeys’ is now fully awakened. I have discovered that I can live an ecstatic life without needing anything to change externally, although I know change is on the horizon. I am experiencing a freedom that I haven’t felt in a long time. Hannah’s guidance and the nurturing environment of the House of Somaya have catalyzed a remarkable transformation in my life. I am deeply grateful for this experience and wholeheartedly recommend Hannah Blake and the House of Somaya retreats to anyone seeking profound personal growth and healing.”
