Focusing, Psychotherapy & The Implicit
– MP3 Audio Course –
with Eugene Gendlin & Ann Weiser Cornell
Focusing, Psychotherapy & The Implicit is a course to support psychotherapists and other healing professionals in being with their clients in a Focusing-oriented way. This is a slightly edited version of a live, interactive, 5-week phone course with the legendary author of Focusing and one of his most well known students.
Focusing is a process that has been linked in over 50 research studies with successful outcomes in psychotherapy. Research has shown that successful therapy clients make contact with a felt sense – a murky, hard to describe, more-than-words experience that is broader and vaguer than emotion. With a certain quality of attention, felt senses can “come into focus” and bring fresh insights and new behavior.

About the Focusing & Thinking Series
The Focusing and Thinking Series is a series of phone seminars offered by Gene Gendlin and Ann Weiser Cornell that explore the implications of Gene Gendlin’s Philosophy of the Implicit and the Focusing process to a broad range of topics including relationships, creativity, social change, psychotherapy, dreams, and thinking.
Ann Weiser Cornell was getting her PhD in Linguistics at the University of Chicago when she met and learned Focusing from Eugene Gendlin. In 1980, Gene invited Ann to assist with his Focusing workshops. This started her on a path to become a Focusing teacher, and in 1990, Ann became the first person to support herself full-time as a Focusing teacher. Today, Ann is internationally recognized as one of the leading innovators and theoreticians of Focusing. She is the author of The Power of Focusing, The Radical Acceptance of Everything and Focusing in Clinical Practice: The Essence of Change.
