Imagine—just for a moment—stepping away from the noise of daily life into a place of creativity, reflection, and deep connection. For one whole day we’ll gather in the calm beauty of nature, surrounded by trees and open meadows, to explore the healing power of Sandplay Therapy.

As a seasoned Sandplay therapist, I feel honored to guide this training in such a unique, nourishing setting. In a small, intimate group, we’ll explore:

  • the history of Sandplay as developed by Dora Kalff

  • the theoretical foundations of C.G. Jung’s work

  • practical ways to bring Sandplay into therapy

  • how to observe and map the unfolding process in the sand

Alongside theory, we’ll dive into experiential practice and case material, so the learning comes alive in a tangible way. We’ll share this day not only as professionals, but as people—curious, open, and connected. And throughout, you’ll be cared for with good coffee, tea, and healthy snacks to keep your energy and focus steady.

Spots are limited, so if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to explore Sandplay in a small, supportive group, now is the time to join.

The Power of the Group Process to learn: This training is intentionally kept small and in person, so you can feel supported, seen, and part of a shared journey of learning and growth.

This day is the first of two Sandplay Fundamentals trainings: A second training will take place in a month to expand on these foundations (save the date: Friday November 14) —the second part is optional, yet highly recommended for those who wish to go deeper. Both days are developed and presented by Ruth Castellano.
