Group trainings

The trainer group aims to deepen the Focusing and companioning skills learned in the self-experience phase, develop core Focusing competencies, and teach the group-companioning and Focusing-teaching method.

The Focusing trainer program is the foundational training of Focusing-Oriented Therapy; passing the trainer exam is the entry requirement for FOT training.

We welcome applications from those who have completed the self-experience and method phases of Focusing and wish to earn the Focusing Trainer title.

Our body signals where we are stuck, what we do not want to face, and what we have not yet been able to forgive — ourselves or others. Our body remembers what happened to us and resonates with our thoughts and present feelings.

It is worth listening to its wisdom. We turn toward ourselves and toward the different parts of us with compassion — the wounded child, the loud inner critic — and draw strength from our free, joyful inner child or our grounded adult self.

In the group you experience the incomparable method of Focusing through your own process, connect with yourself through bodily sensations, and come closer to your inner sense of safety.

No prior training is required to join, and you do not need to be a helping professional. All that is asked is your deepest wish to connect with yourself.
