The International Focusing Institute Event Rob Parker
New registrants are welcome who have previously read Chapters I-VI on their own or with some group.

Chapter VII is approximately 1/3 of the book so is being offered in 6 sections of 11 sessions. This event listing is for sessions 12-22.

Chapter VII, Culture, Symbol, and Language, was in many ways Gendlin's favorite chapter, not only because language and symbols are central to Focusing, but because they raise so many fascinating questions.

Learning Community for Mastery in Guiding Change, Year 1 Sandy Jahmi Burg, 2019
This series is designed to encourage us to live Gendlin's concept of "crossing" in a supportive community setting. This community is for those who often find themselves in situations of facilitating change for others, individuals and groups. It’s a great option for those who are looking for a community-based path toward certification, for those who do not need certification, and also works well if you are already certified.

This Learning Community is a year-long program meeting twenty times every other week for 1.5 hours. This course/community is a lovely supportive space to continue learning with other advanced Focusers or to pursue certification at your own pace as a Focusing Professional or Trainer with TIFI.
