“I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the priceless gift of Focusing. The difference it has made in my life – and continues to make – is phenomenal. It has opened up many doors for me and there is a great deal of power behind those doors. ... For the first time I can look at what is inside of me and answer some of the problems I’ve been tripping over for so long. And through it I am learning to love and appreciate myself. I like to think of Focusing as the flower that shattered the stone.”
– Larry Stearns, Carmichael, CA

“Focusing is exquisite listening to that small still voice inside each of us. ... Focusing integrates beautifully with psychotherapy – it has accelerated my therapy greatly. It’s like I can do homework in my therapy by using Focusing. I also know right away in therapy when something is unsaid but needs saying. Focusing has brought me much more present with myself – In some situations in my life, I have always been ruled by my head – Now I let my heart speak, too.”
– Michael Hagerty

“This is a wonderful process – it’s real, it’s simple, you don’t need to be an expert to do it. It’s very empowering.”
– Jeffrey Mishlove

	My name is Ann Weiser Cornell and I’ve devoted my life to finding better and better ways to give you the empowering skill of Focusing so you can experience the confidence and clarity of knowing what you really feel and want and living your life from that place. Let me tell you why I love my work. (I never get tired of this kind of story.)
When Claire called me, she was feeling overwhelmed and frantic. Her work life had come to a virtual halt because she couldn't find anything on her desk. She had piles of papers spilling over onto the floor, and she was convinced that only a few hours was all she needed to bring some order to the chaos. But she couldn't get herself to do it! Projects were being delayed and she was under attack by an inner critical voice calling her "a failure" and "useless." By the end of her very first session with me, Claire was feeling relaxed, hopeful, and energized. The next day she set aside an hour and got her papers much more in order, including finding some key documents. We were able to do this session on the phone ... It wasn't coaching or therapy ... It wasn’t something I did to her or for her. It was something I showed her how to do. ... and in that one session she made the first step toward being able to have with her the calm and confidence of the Focusing process every moment of her life.
Does Claire’s story sound like yours? Maybe you’re more like one of the other people I’ve worked with recently... Is this You?
