I love both teaching Focusing to newcomers and supporting trainees in finding their own unique way to share this soothing, enriching, enlivening process. I enjoy attempting to explain and teach Focusing using everyday language, without confusing 'insider' jargon!

I know Focusing as a way of more conscious feeling life. Many signals on the way get more noticed and attended to get more in sync with life in all aspects as possible to become your own buddy in life.

Over 30 years ago, when I asked myself what I was here for an answer came right away: to look deeply within and help others to do the same. Several years after I discovered Focusing. Since 1994 I've been happily offering one-one sessions, teaching Focusing, and living a life guided by Focusing.
