After the first two levels of my level 1 to 5 Focusing Skills course, you will be able to have a Focusing partnership with others who have also learned the basics of Focusing.
In level 1 & 2 you will be offered a lot of new material to experiment with. This might feel technical or artificial at times. For you to begin to flow with Focusing process naturally and intuitively needs practice. With time, you can inwardly relax, both as a Focuser and as listener, which is the foundation for a deeply meaningful process to occur. Therefore, I highly recommend joining the entire level 1-5 course until September 12, 2022.
If you are unsure, schedule a Focusing Session with me, the fee will be offset against

PART 2 is about deepening into the Focusing and Listening process by looking more at the role of the Companion. A companion to ourselves as well as others. I introduce neuroscience here. We develop further our personal concept of creating an inner space that welcomes it all and adapting that space as we follow our process. Requires some previous partnership experience.
Class meets six times on Tuesdays 7-9pm EST beginning February 8.
Setting boundaries is complex and likely to bring up a lot of mixed feelings! In this free mini-course, we'll address three specific issues that can come up with boundaries, including:
- Learning how to tell if your needs are getting pushed aside (which often happens when you say yes but mean no)
- Discovering what a healthy boundary looks like and how simple they can be (something you probably didn’t learn growing up)
- Understanding what you’re saying yes to when you say no (and why this tip helps you communicate better with the people in your life)
Plus, we'll talk about what might be going on inside when someone says no to you.
No matter how challenging healthy boundaries might feel today…

My METHOD of teaching TAE follows the recommendation and style designed by Eugene T. Gendlin Ph.D. This means teaching TAE Steps and utilize these to a project of your choice. This way, you will learn both the Method of how to do TAE again and again on different topics, discover how each step functions AND you will be working on applying all of that to your own topic.MODULE ONE STEPS 1-5
Thinking at the Edge is embodied thinking. It’s the crossover between thinking and sensing in a Focusing way. It’s especially helpful if you have some writing or study that you want to do; some area of exploration where you already have some knowledge.
This is the last of our three part interactive online course. During our 6 classes, we will guide you in a playful way, through the third phase of TAE (steps 10 - 14). You will be connecting terms (words, phrases, concepts) to bring together what you have found in the preceding steps. This allows you to create a formal theory that is logical and rooted in felt-sensing, which can be applied to other fields and to your own topic.
Love your first experience with TAE and want more? You don’t have to have steps 1 - 9 to join us for this class.
