About us
Free online tasters and events about Experiential Focusing: a gentle way of listening to what you sense but can't yet put into words. No experience needed.
Hosted by Gonçalo Moreira, PhD: Focusing Trainer (The International Focusing Institute), Focusing Teacher (British Focusing Association) and Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner. Events in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
My way of working is trauma-sensitive and neurodiversity-affirming. In every event you can move, doodle, switch your camera off or use the chat whenever you need to, and you never have to share anything personal. These are training classes, not psychotherapy.
Em português: aulas experimentais e eventos online gratuitos sobre Focusing Experiencial (também chamado Focalização Experiencial).
En español: clases de prueba y eventos online gratuitos sobre Focusing Experiencial.
