Freda is very professional and compassionate at the same time. She brings to the Focusing world a distinctive way to blend the negative moment with the positive, to project a new synthesis. It could be a Hegelian feature hidden in German culture, but it worked so well in practice, that it has made me enthusiastic about her approach. There is a tenderness implicit in it, that we all should experience

I participated in Freda Blob's workshop 'Arts Based Self Focusing For Supporting Clients in Trauma-informed Focusing Oriented Psychotherapy'. I want to say that Freda's workshop was very professional. The combination of art therapy and Focusing opened up new possibilities for to process with Focusing. I will be able to integrate this valuable experience into my daily work
Thank you, Freda!

I was surprised that focusing helped me to focus on my inner sensation, to reveal the discomfort in my body and that the body itself knows and answers my request. And third, I was surprised that the answer was on the surface. It was like I didn't want to notice it and drove it out of my awareness. Now I feel connected. Thank you

Ingrid, sythemic therapist and consultant
I feel very relaxed and comfortable now. Much more relaxed than I came. I came here with fear. I didn't know what to expect. It is the first time that I do something with the arts. I don't know how to do anything with the arts. But I thought I'll give it a try. And then everything was so free and easy going. I didn't have to do any of the art exercises. I could do as I wanted. I could play with colors and express myself or sit and watch in silence. That was great. That was so good!
