Overview
This is a one-year certificate course in focusing-oriented psychotherapy, taught over six weekends. The course is designed for counsellors who wish to further their professional development. The central emphasis is on the experiencing process of the client and on ways in which the therapist can help the client to relate to their experiencing of their situation. Focusing is a naturally occurring process which can be cultivated by training and then incorporated into work with clients. Applicants will be expected to have a Diploma in Counselling or equivalent. It is open to applicants from any therapeutic orientation, although some familiarity with the person-centred approach will be assumed.
