Retreat lead

Dr. Petra Frese

Two doctorates in psychology. A master's in engineering. A former firefighter. And a way of working that none of those three things explains.

The retreat she leads

Background

The intuitive scientist

Petra Frese does not fit in one box, and she has stopped trying to.

She holds dual PhDs in psychology and a master's degree in engineering, with further work in human genetics. For years she was a firefighter, which is a different kind of qualification: she has spent time in situations where someone's life depended on what she did in the next sixty seconds.

She also describes several profound near-death experiences, and works today as a psychic medium and healer. Those two sentences sit side by side on purpose. That combination is the whole point of her, and it is why she calls her work the place where science meets spirit.

Her clients are mostly high achievers: people who have built something, who are good at what they do, and who have arrived at a question their competence cannot answer. She works with mental coaching, hypnosis, neuro-encoding, corporate coaching, energy healing and spiritual guidance.

Straight talk

Why she is on a site that says "no hocus pocus"

Fair question. Here is the honest answer, from Stin.

I am the guy who spends his days taking hypnosis myths apart. I flew to Zurich as the organizer, planning to hold the room and let Petra do the work. I walked out as a participant who had understood something about himself that a decade of professional training had not touched. Stin-Niels Musche

We are not going to tell you we can explain, scientifically, what happens in her sessions. We cannot. What we can tell you is what participants report afterwards, and that the people reporting it are not the credulous type. Most of them are therapists, physicians and business owners who went in skeptical.

Draw your own conclusion. That is the only honest instruction we can give you here.

Healing for Leaders and Healers

Petra leads the retreat, Stin organizes it. Two days, a small, hand-picked circle, and participation by application only. She reads every application herself and decides whether the person and the group fit each other. That is not a marketing device, it is how she works.

The people who come are the ones others call when something breaks: therapists, physicians, coaches, founders. For two days they are not the one holding the room.
