Who Are We?

LONDON FOCUSING is a community of people who are learning, practicing, and teaching Focusing. We are both Focusing teachers and students, offering a space for anyone to learn this simple, natural and profound experiential process. Focusing enhances and deepens many of our human endeavours, our relationships and our understanding of living.
We offer:
- Focusing introductions and full courses for professionals (anyone working with others) and for the general public.
- Courses to train (experienced or newly-qualified) psychotherapists, counsellors, coaches, bodyworkers and psychologists how to deepen their work and therapeutic relationships so that clients are more likely to get the change they are looking for.
- Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses for any professionals interested in self-development and self-care, personal growth, and increasing the meaning of their working life.
If you are interested in our next trainings or the 2-year Focusing Oriented Therapy course for Counsellors, Coaches, Psychologists, Body Practitioners and other professionals, please contact us.
