We’re meeting to discuss what’s relevant and wonderful about Sandplay - as well as what makes it hard to think about working for certification. Let’s explore the mystique around Dora Kalff’s legacy. There’s a shadow that has obscured and affected people’s perception of Sandplay work. What does being a Sandplay therapist really mean? Let’s begin by asking questions about what is the core of sandplay practice? How does someone begin a process? Why go deeply into an understanding of symbols, symbolic language, the tension of the opposites, the notion of co-transference?  We’ll focus on why sandplay therapists undertake heroic journeys in sandwork with children, teens and adults. Come delve into this topic and begin to unravel some of the mysteries!
