About Patrick
As a Certified Life Coach, I partner with clients to create, maintain or boost change in any area of their lives. Coaching is a collaborative process that can help you achieve the goals that matter to you, clarify what you need, realize your potential and work through barriers. With empathy and a willingness to lovingly challenge you to build accountability and get results, I offer a supportive and skillful collaborator with whom you can plan, dream, implement, create, take stock, re-evaluate, question, answer, transform, or simply explore what is possible and achievable in making the changes you wish to make.
Even though it may sometimes feel out of reach, we all have a deep inner sense of what we need in order to live a purposeful and rewarding life. With the right conditions and support, we can all create more coherence and alignment with our authentic selves and access the vitality and satisfaction that comes from moving closer to being true to who we are.
As a counsellor in training, I bring a trauma informed lens to the life coaching process and am well positioned to support clients in the process of making and sustaining life changes that can result from deep healing work. I am a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and works within the ICF Code of Ethics.
My work is rooted in love and courage. Together, these values inform my evolving work offerings and guide me in the ongoing discovery of my role in the multi-generational project of dismantling systems of oppression and healing our relationships with each other and the earth. I brings an intersectional and liberatory lens to the healing journey and the impacts of individual life-choices.
As simultaneous beneficiaries and victims of a patriarchal society, men’s healing has a particular flavour and importance. It is a topic that I am passionate about and have been working with since 2009 when I did my first 3-day men’s initiation retreat through the Mankind Project.
I am a professional with a wide variety of life experience including training in group facilitation, somatic practices, bodywork, community conflict work, and governance. As well as decades in men’s circles, my diverse experience includes operations management, running a group home and driving a tow truck.
Curiosity and gratitude together with a deep respect and empathy for the experience of others, supports me in creating and sustaining group spaces in which everyone’s truth is welcome and can be safely held. I trusts the wisdom of our hearts and bodies as intelligent guides.
Cold rivers, wet forests, dance, and hanging with the horses are how I recharges and ground. As a father, divorcee, partner and friend to a menagerie of animals and a few humans, my life is filled with opportunities, challenges and gratitude.
I live on unceded Quw'utsun territory.
