The Focusing Oriented Therapy Program
This program takes place on the second Saturday of every month, online. Each 1-day training runs from 9 am to 3 pm Pacific Time; the Early Bird price is $210 Cdn. or $170 US per workshop, and payment deadline is the Saturday 2 weeks prior to the workshop date. After that the rate increases to $245 Cdn. or $200 US - email me directly to inquire about payment options and topics schedule.
Counselling professionals and graduate students are welcome to attend single modules or the whole 16-month series, and may become certified as a "Focusing Oriented Therapist" (FOT), or "Certified Focusing Professional" (CFP) upon completion of certain criteria. (For details, see "Modules & Certification.")
This is a highly experiential training program. Participants will practice on each other, which allows us, in the client role, to experience the process of Focusing first-hand. The sequencing of modules will be determined by the needs and schedules of the participants... you will direct me as to which topics, in what order, on what schedule works for you, thus providing a custom-fitted design.
This training uses a continuous intake format, with multiple passes of each module. Because Focusing is not technique-driven, I have found the repetition to be incredibly helpful; it's all about developing a 'feel' for the work, learning how to match the client's process, and learning how to speak the language of the body.
The very nature of Focusing is organic, not mechanical, and my hope is that this format is well suited to the essence of Eugene Gendlin’s Focusing approach. I hope you will join me on this journey of learning and growth, and I’m excited to meet you and include you into our warm and welcoming group of developing Focusers!
