While Focusing has long had a home in psychotherapy and also as a powerful modality for personal development, professional coaching has lagged behind in tools which work with the implicit aspects of cognition. Over 8, 2 hour classes supplemented with supportive content on our learning platform, we teach how Focusing can be powerfully integrated into coaching interactions.
