Professional Diploma in Sandtray Therapy and Symbolic Expression

This exciting Diploma course will bring participants deep into the world of projective play and the use of symbols as therapeutic agents with psychotherapy and counselling clients. Participants will engage in experiential sessions utilising sandtray therapy, spectrograms, and the use of symbols. The training is relevant for therapists working with adults, adolescents, and/or children. Making use of right-brain processes and accessing  implicit memories will deepen the therapy process and facilitate healing from unresolved issues that have their roots at any life stage.  Accessing a direct route to the unconscious bypasses defences and maintains a felt sense of safety by providing dramatic distance from disturbing thoughts and feelings. This allows the social engagement system to stay active and protects the client from being triggered into a hyper- or hypo-aroused state. Creative expression, with a therapist who communicates strong safety cues, allows the player to experience a neuroception of safety even when processing difficult experiences.
