About us
Professional support. Personal connection.
SURAMOON was developed by Bettina Rashidi-Sangsari and Julia Nürnberger.
We share the belief that therapeutic depth and human warmth belong together. We aim neither to mystify extraordinary experiences nor to reduce them to a purely medical intervention. Instead, we combine medical safety, psychotherapy and experiential work in a personal setting. Our small group size allows us to provide individual support to each person throughout the week.
Our team
Experienced. Compassionate. Here for you.
Bettina Rashidi-Sangsari
Specialist in Internal Medicine
Bettina is a specialist in internal medicine with many years of experience as a specialist and senior physician in geriatrics and palliative medicine, as well as additional qualifications in naturopathic medicine, acupuncture and psychological health promotion. She has been working in ketamine-assisted therapy for several years. At SURAMOON, she provides medical care and supervision throughout the retreat, with particular responsibility for the ketamine-assisted sessions.
Julia Nürnberger
Psychologist (M.Sc.)
Julia is a psychologist (M.Sc.) whose work focuses on trauma therapy and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. She played a key role in establishing a practice specialising in ketamine therapy and also shares her knowledge of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy through professional training for physicians and psychotherapists. At SURAMOON, she supports psychotherapeutic preparation, individual and group processes, and the integration of participants’ experiences.
Openness. Trust. Connection.
Together, we create a setting where openness, trust and personal boundaries are equally valued. We see ketamine as a tool within a broader therapeutic process, rather than a standalone solution. This is why preparation and integration receive just as much attention at SURAMOON as the experience itself. We believe in meeting people as equals and allowing each person’s process to unfold without rushing or forcing it. Our approach is grounded in professionalism, respect, curiosity and authentic human connection.
