In this online workshop, the second of a five-module Focusing Skills certificate course, we will explore further both the Focusing process and what it means to be a companion to another Focuser. The emphasis will be on learning through practice but there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion. This module follows on from the previous one, Introducing Focusing. If you have not attended Module 1 but would like to join this module, I would suggest you book one or more individual catch-up sessions with me.

Module 3 – Going deeper
8th, 9th, 15th and 16th March 2025
In this online workshop, the third of the five modules of the Focusing Skills Certificate course, we shall look more deeply into the processes of
Focusing and being a companion, refining and building on the skills you have learnt in the first two modules. We will also begin to look at the times when the companion may take a slightly more active role, led by the Focuser's process, and make suggestions that can help the process forward. However, the companion's primary role is still to listen and reflect, and you will have plenty of time to practise this.
The workshop will run over four mornings, Saturday 8th March 2025, Sunday 9th Marchr, Saturday 15th March and Sunday 16rh March, 10.00-1.00 each morning. The cost will be £130, concessionary rate £90. If you would like to attend but are unable to pay the concessionary rate, please contact me. Please also contact me if you would like to book an individual session or sessions.
Module 4 – Parts and 'somethings': befriending our critics
5th, 6th, 12th and 13th April 2025
In this online workshop, the fourth module of five for the Focusing Skills Certificate, we will look more closely at the different
'parts', or 'partial-selves' that we often meet when we are Focusing, especially the dynamic of what's often called the 'inner critic' and its relationship to other parts of us. You will discover how to meet these dynamics with more space and kindness, both when you are Focusing yourself and when you are companion to another Focuser, and you will see how they are often not quite what we take them to be. In doing this you will continue to build on the skills you have already learnt as a Focuser and as a companion.
The worksohp will take place over four mornings from 10.00 am – 1.00 pm, on Saturday 5th April 2025, Sunday 6th April, Saturday 12th April and Sunday 13th April. The cost is £130 for the four mornings, concessionary rate £90. If you would like to attend but are unable to pay the concessionary rate, please contact me. Do also contact me if you would like to book an individual session.
In this fifth and last module of the Focusing Skills Certificate course we will look further at untangling difficult inner dynamics and also look at ways of bringing Focusing into our lives. There will be time for questions and discussion about the course as a whole and for sensing ways of taking the learning forward.
The workshop will take place over four mornings from 10.00 am – 1.00 pm, on Saturday10th May 2025, Sunday 11th May, Saturday 17th May and Sunday 18th May. The cost is £130 for the four mornings, concessionary rate £90. If you would like to attend but are unable to pay the concessionary rate, please contact me.
