The Focusing Oriented Therapy Program
This program takes place on select Saturdays, both online and at my home in East Langley - the specific dates are determined by the group, up to 6 months in advance. Each 1-day training runs from 9 am to 3 pm, at a cost of $200 plus GST (total $210) per workshop. Counselling professionals and graduate students are welcome to attend single modules or the whole 2-year series, and may become certified as a "Focusing Oriented Therapist" (FOT), 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!
