Welcome to The

Commonwealth
Focusing Association

Ensuring that

good mental health

is within everyone's reach

Especially those who need it most

The Commonwealth Focusing Association's mission is to deliver sustainable and replicable methods of providing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Eugene Gendlin's Focusing to everyone that can benefit from it, with a focus on the global underserved community.
Mindfulness

All communities are prone to co-existing health conditions that can often be attributed to prolonged stress caused by adverse personal, professional or political conditions. Prolonged stressful events can eventually affect learning and development. The implementation of certain markers such as mindfulness, implicit listening and improved communication can make significant differences in stress reduction, leading to stable relationships and a long generative life.

Community

A healthy and functioning society provides a sense of trust and safety for its people, allowing an existing community to thrive. Challenges such as poverty, inadequate education, poor physical and mental health tend to break down community structures. Our organization hopes to combat these challenges by providing assistance in the form of policy guidance and professional training to help keep communities strong, to the benefit of all its people.

Education

We aim to support and promote education in the Commonwealth, with a primary focus on the Caribbean, by improving under-performing schools through services to people of all ages and skill levels – from the root to the boughs. Our organization hopes to bring together interested persons to contribute resources geared towards improving educational outcomes.
