“The course run by Paula was excellent. Very professionally delivered and friendly too. I have learnt an invaluable tool. Thanks for answering questions along the way"

“Excellent content & handouts. Clear delivery by Paula aided by showing Focusing in action. The course & timings were spot on. I feel I gained a good understanding but very much see that in order to be better able to use the Focusing approach I will need to practice."
