WHAT COURSES ?

(1) GodSpaces ( track one ) is the entry level for all other courses and training because it is pivotal to Refocussing. God Spaces is in itself a theory and practice, which provides a reliable, predictable and repeatable way to  facilitate people to find and learn how to use their God Spaces to refocus on where God is and what He knows. Dr Divett’s, step by step, God Spaces workbook and DVD (see resources page) outlines what and how to use God Spaces.  Also, for an example  see how Dr Divett with a skilled team  conducted a 12 day intensive to equip and train local pastors, leaders and counsellors to learn the theory and practice of Godspaces to shift people from trauma to encounter God as the One who heals/ resources and /resolves traumatic memories from a war torn past.

Part two: The theory and practice of Refocussing – Refocussing is an actual theory, conforming to the rules of what constitutes a sound theory. RF goes beyond being a mere model or a paradigm.   The theory has been carefully constructed so that’ focus’ on  people’s ‘unmet needs’, and then a refocus- that is, a way to attend to those ‘unmet needs’ is provided, via the unique component, the God spaces, which is the central part of Dr Divett’s ’seven foci integration system’ (specifically designed to integrate psychology and theology in a sound academic way). This seven foci integration system is designed to attend to the whole person,  that is the Intra- personal ( intellectual, emotional, moral, physical) Interpersonal (social/relational, recreational/leisure, vocational/career) and Transpersonal (spiritual). The  inclusion of an adaptation of David Grove’s ‘clean language’ process also allows for a ‘clean’ and ‘uncontaminated’ way to conduct the therapy thus minimising transference and counter-transference. This course is both theoretical and practical with 50% lectures including demonstrations, and 50% interactive learning exercise. Part one is a prerequisite for entry into part two – this course is suitable for pastors, counsellors, psychologists and those training to be counsellors, socialworkers and so on.
