An Online Class Facilitated by Biliana Dearly
Part of The Focusing Highlights Series
This Focusing Highlight provides an opportunity to observe a Focusing session facilitated by an experienced, certified Focusing-Oriented Therapist and trainer.
This Demonstration Class will begin with Biliana’s brief talk about some aspects of facilitating a Focusing session for someone for the first time. She will then invite a volunteer (one of the participants) onscreen with her and facilitate a session of about 45 minutes. Afterwards, the class participants will have the opportunity for the remaining time to ask questions about the process they just observed.
Other relevant topics to be discussed will include: how to introduce Focusing to different people in different settings; how to respond to particular difficulties or special circumstances when facilitating Focusing with someone for the first time; and the various options of starting the session.
