Focusing for Counsellors and Psychotherapists
3rd October 2026 - 4th October 2026
Specialist Workshop/Event
Many counsellors and psychotherapists learn something about Focusing in their training, but may not feel they know enough to bring it into their work.This short online course will teach you the basic elements of Focusing, both as a resource for the practitioner and as a way of helping clients access their own embodied experience. The course will look at ways in which counsellors and psychotherapists can incorporate Focusing into their work, or incorporate it more fully.
Bringing a Focusing awareness into client sessions can help the process to deepen and become more embodied. To use Focusing effectively you need to become familiar with it as a practice for yourself. The course will be mainly experiential, but there will be some theoretical discussion and reflection on client work. In the first morning we will Focus in dyads or triads. The second morning will look more at work with clients. The course is for practising counsellors/ psychotherapists and trainees who are about to start seeing clients.
The course will take place over two mornings, Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th October, 10.00 -1.00 each morning. The cost is £80, concessionary rate £50. If you would like to attend the course but would have difficulty paying the concessionary rate, please contact me via the contact form on my profile.
