Patrick is an experienced group facilitator and coach specializing in the integration of consciousness-expanding experiences. As an on-site facilitator at retreats and an integration coach at SET & SETTING, he supports participants throughout their journey. He believes the real transformation after a retreat happens during the integration phase, when insights are carefully grounded into everyday life and made lasting.
Drawing on many years of experience in storytelling and narrative work, he uses personal stories as a central part of the integration process. His own engagement with death and grief led him to volunteer in hospice end-of-life care. For him, facing life’s impermanence, however painful, opens the door to experiencing life in its fullness.
He is especially committed to creating spaces for open dialogue about death and grief through different formats. The parallels between supporting dying people and guiding individuals during and after consciousness-altering states feel deeply meaningful to him, and he is grateful for the opportunity to offer support in this way.
