This column is a space for our community to share and reflect on the vast territory that encompasses the intersection of Relational and Focusing Oriented Psychotherapy (FORP). We invite you to bring examples of how you work and how you think about how you work. We want to know what your questions and dilemmas are, clinical moments you are proud and excited about, times you wish you had moved in a different direction with a client, things you said and things you didn’t say. We encourage you to give voice to whatever inspires or perplexes you.
The format is yours with these caveats: please either disguise as much as possible any clinical material you present, or get your client’s permission to print it. Make it brief—between one to three pages. While it doesn’t have to be journal-ready material, we would like to see thoughtful work that has a sense of completeness.
WE INVITE YOU TO INCLUDE YOUR RESPONSES TO THESE ARTICLES, CREATING LIVELY AND ONGOING DIALOGUE.
Please send your writing and any questions to <haikususan@aol.com>.
