Training Courses

Sandplay Therapy changes your practice. It enhances the way you work. You will be amazed at the depth to which clients can see clearly how beliefs, patterns and issues are formed and resolved in the sandtray.
This training will allow you to use your creativity in your practice to help your client through their journey of transforming their lives.
The training is at the same level of postgraduate courses that Marg has helped developed in the past in Transpersonal Psychology. Courses offered include Certificate of Graduation in each level of Visionary Sandplay Training, Sandplay Therapy and Relationships, and Master Sandplay Therapy.
The Modules are conducted over three-day weekends.
- Module one must be completed at the outset unless you have completed and can provide evidence of training in Sandplay elsewhere.
- Modules two, three and four can be completed in any order.
- Module five can be completed only after all prior modules have been completed or it can be demonstrated that you have attained a competency level to complete Module five.
- Module six - Attendees will need to have completed levels 1-5 above or have completed extensive training elsewhere in which case you will need to apply for recognition of prior learning (RPL).
