EVENT DESCRIPTION
We are pleased to announce that the Focusing Oriented Therapy Conference is now an ONLINE conference, to take place Friday, October 23 to Sunday, October 25.
Our theme this year is "How the Felt Sense Enables Therapeutic Change." The conference will be a blend of pre-recorded presentations, live panel discussions and demonstrations, live workshops, as well as time for Focusing.
The pre-conference (October 21-22) will be a two-day introductory course in Focusing for therapists, so please encourage therapists who are not yet familiar with Focusing to attend the pre-conference so that they can get the most out of the conference itself.
Presentations, demonstrations and workshops will span global time zones and additional content will be made available in Spanish. We are still working out details of the schedule and presenters, but so far we know that Lynn Preston, Joan Klagsbrun, Salvador Moreno, Laury Rappaport, Edgardo Riveros, Leslie Ellis, Greg Madison, Ann Weiser Cornell and Jan Winhall will be among those making this event spectacular!
