Testimonials
Nothing speaks louder than the voices of those who’ve been there. Here is what our students have to say about learning SOF and bringing it to life.
What SOF Students Say
Social Oriented Focusing is too small a name for what you bring. You bring genuine human connection. You teach people how to reach their own hearts - and the heart of another. You teach people what true love is. And you create a deep and safe container in which people can meet themselves. Thank you for that. ❤️ And thank you for the privilege of working with you. 🙏
Karen Binyamin
"Working with the SOF format brought new insights with every single session - far beyond what I ever expected. I would recommend this course to anyone. The world would truly be a much happier place if we all learned how to choose openness over defense or aggression."
Ann Maclnnes
"These SOF meetings were so meaningful for me.
I gained a powerful sense of how vital human interaction is, and how much healing we all need in this space. It is such a safe, amazing experience to practice with Focusers who live this inner connection and are so skilled at tuning into what's happening within, all with deep sensitivity for the other."
Hila
"Yet another deeply meaningful and unique session. You touch on the vital points with precision, gently moving us forward. These sessions with you, Yehudit, are truly extraordinary - not just in the Focusing arena, but within the therapeutic space as a whole. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn, evolve, and connect thought with feeling, body with mind, and person with person."
Elior Tirosh
"Dear Yehudit, We have a saying in Chinese: "When one's gratitude goes too deep to express, he can only thank the universe." Meeting SOF let me want to thank the universe. I'm just at the beginning of the journey, it feels so powerful, how would it be after I dive in it for years? My imagination is too limited to answer this question! Thanks for everything you are offering and the way you take care of our learning!❤️"
Chao-Wen
"I came in as a skeptic, expecting nothing more than basic group sessions. I had no idea how powerful and direct it would be - it felt like rewriting my internal code. SOF proved that this work can truly transform how we view ourselves, navigate the world, and build deeply meaningful relationships."
Ortal Bar
"SOF brought life energy into places inside me that were knotted from past difficulties and limiting beliefs. Practicing in a group—receiving feedback while connecting to my own inner truth—was deeply healing for my fear and shame. It moved me from robotic, habituated ways of interacting into a space of true joy, openness, and belonging."
Randy Levin
"SOF will take your Focusing to another level and teach you the skills to transform your everyday relationships. It offers a unique opportunity to make Focusing truly interactive co-creating a shared space between two Focusers, and challenging you to meet yourself deeply and honestly in all your connections."
Jolanta
"SOF gives you the tools to ask the most important questions in your everyday relationships - allowing you to stay aware, connect deeper to yourself, and truly relate to the other person."
Jolanta
"SOF is about relating to others while staying connected to yourself. Navigating 'I' space and 'We' space through the body was a complete revelation for me."
Josh
"Through SOF, we learn to remain intimate with our present-moment experience as we navigate relationships. Exploring concepts like 'I' space and 'We' space with the felt sense was entirely unique - it gave me the core tools to stay connected to my inner truth while deeply engaging with others."
Josh
"The structured, progressive practices create such a safe container. Yehudit and Anita, because you truly live what you teach, the learning is naturally transmitted in how you hold the group - modeling vulnerability and joy, and inviting us to safely step out of loneliness into real, heart-centered connection."
Randy Levin
"This journey has been deeply precious to me, both personally and professionally. SOF created such a transformative experience that I’d happily show up at 8:00 AM on a Sunday just to be a part of it again as an assistant!"
