The overall aim of Refocussing is to facilitate greater wholeness. To achieve this the theory provides a ‘seven foci meta-system’ to attend to people’s unmet needs in various spaces and contexts including:
Intra – personal ( intellectual, physical, emotional, moral);
Inter – personal (social- including health & economic wellbeing, relational, recreational, vocational, career);
Trans-personal ( relationship with God, spiritual development & relation to the environment).
Refocussing Counselling (RFC) or Refocussing Therapy (RFT) has been reported to be very effective for:
- couples with relational and marriage problems
- children suffering fear, anxiety, nightmares, family and relational dysfunction
- stress & other anxiety, phobic and obsessive compulsive disorders
- a suicide prevention approach
- overcoming anger
- treating and healing eating disorders
- healing, and resolving some depressive disorders
- facilitating a positive and healthy view and relationship with God
- Goal setting and problem solving
- increasing damaged self esteem and other child hood hurts
- Workplace vision and team building
- Vocational / future career and decision making options
- Training and teaching small groups in self awareness and increasing connection to God.
Refocussing provides reputable research from the University of Auckland, and Massey University (New Zealand).
