Domain Focusing with Robert Lee
NY Metro Focusing meetings offer an opportunity to engage in a felt sensing, interactive exploration of topics of interest. We value diversity and welcome everyone’s voice. Our conversational process encourages slowing down, listening from a felt sensing place, and letting what we hear resonate within to bring something new and fresh, both within ourselves and within the group.
MEETING PROGRAM
6:00 - Registration and Networking with Light Refreshments
6:30 - Welcome - Susan Deisroth; Attunement – Rachel Alexander
6:45 - Program: Domain Focusing with Robert Lee
Robert Lee has inspirationally conceived Domain Focusing to enhance our access to deep Focusing experience. Through Domain Focusing we are carried forward into real change. This evening we will have the opportunity to learn about Domain Focusing and experience the change it can bring.
Dr. Lee will first elaborate this theory and show us how it is carrying forward many of Eugene Gendlin’s ideas. He will next give us a demonstration using the three domains of Issue, Self-Empathy and Felt Sense. We will have a chance to observe and then participate in a discussion about what we have observed. In the final part of the evening we will be guided in our own experience of Domain Focusing.
About Robert Lee: As a theoretician, innovator, and frequent presenter in the world of Focusing, Robert Lee has developed a new kind of Focusing: Domain Focusing. He has also developed a theory/practice for timely deep change for stubborn problems (Macroshifting) and a method for working with difficulties in felt sense formation. As a psychologist, he has created a new structure and context for psychotherapy, a Focusing-implied approach to couples therapy (Empathic Opportunity Coupling), and special methods for anxiety, OCD, and depression. He has mentored many successful Focusing coordinators and was mentored himself by Eugene Gendlin and Clark Moustakas.
Robert Lee offers online and in-person training programs in Domain Focusing.
