It is this creative tension; the dance between known personality and the mysterious unconscious realm is what causes us to grow… it is what breaks the impasse.

The Process

What I do

as your Focusing Guide

  • In a Focusing session, you bring a life issue to explore and I guide you by offering gentle suggestions and invitations to facilitate your process of inner listening.
  • I help you to cultivate a spacious presence from which you are able to be with those places in you which might need your compassionate curiosity and companionship.
  • This inner relationship offers acceptance and deep empathy for what arises, and creates space for those places to communicate, to be held and ultimately to shift, as stoppages in our natural life process open up and life energy can flow more freely.
  • As a result you experience more spaciousness and possibility in your life.

It is this creative tension; the dance between known personality and the mysterious unconscious realm is what causes us to grow… it is what breaks the impasse.

What you do

in your Focusing session

  • At the beginning of a session, you name a life issue which you’d like to explore. You can share as much or as little about the issue as is comfortable for you.
  • You sense into the issue by listening inwardly and becoming aware of how your body holds the situation. This might include sensations, images, gestures, memories, stories and thoughts.
  • With my gentle guidance, you create the environment in which an unfolding opens up.
  • By sensing what isn’t moving forward and then symbolizing your awareness – experience and language meet, resonate and become one – a living forward of the situation that can be felt as a bodily shift within. This can bring insights that lead to a new attitude and ways of being.
  • You learn to become your own centered, grounded home in the wilderness.
