Hi, I’m Bernadette, your Kambo advocate, also known as The Kamboist.

My first experience with Kambo changed the way I related to my body. It awakened a deeper level of listening. I became more attuned to its needs, rhythms, and wisdom, and began caring for myself with greater clarity, presence, and intention.

That experience sparked something in me.

At the time, my mother was navigating unexplained symptoms that conventional medicine had not been able to resolve, and I felt called to understand Kambo more deeply, not only for myself, but so I could support her as well.

That calling eventually led me into the jungles of Peru in 2019, where I trained with the Matsés, an Indigenous people with a long ancestral relationship to Kambo.

My training was immersive. I spent a month serving and receiving Kambo every other day, followed by a 10 day Kambo dieta in isolation. I then remained with the Matsés community for several months, continuing to serve and deepening both my practical experience and my relationship with the medicine.

That experience shaped the way I work today. I serve Kambo through intimate 1:1 sessions and small group containers. This allows me to stay closely attuned to each person and to hold the experience with the presence, care, and reverence that were central to my training.

People come to Kambo for many different reasons. Some are navigating chronic health challenges or emotional patterns. Others are seeking clarity, a reset, or simply a deeper relationship with themselves and their bodies.

Whatever brings you here, I don’t believe healing is one size fits all. Your body, your history, your intentions, and your experience are uniquely yours. My role is to meet you there, offer clear guidance and grounded support, and create the space for you to listen more deeply to what your own experience is asking of you.

Thank you for being here.
