Imagine this: your hands rest in soft, warm sand. Around you are tiny symbols—stones smoothed by the sea, delicate shells, miniature figures, fragments of wood, keys without locks. Each one a doorway into a client’s inner world.
Now imagine offering this to someone in your care—a way for them to speak without words, to tell the stories they didn’t even know were waiting to be told.
This 2-day experiential training is your opportunity to step into that world. It is the heart of SandStory Therapy® training, and on completion you will be a Registered SandStory Therapist®, ready to offer this powerful medium to your clients, whether they are 8 or 88.
Across these two immersive days, you won’t just learn the five-stage model—you’ll live it. You’ll work in the sand yourself, discovering how symbols and scenes emerge, how meaning reveals itself in gentle, surprising ways. You’ll share and learn alongside a small group of fellow therapists, in a space limited to just six participants for depth, safety, and connection.
SandStory Therapy® allows clients to explore the tender and hidden parts of themselves with safety and creativity. For you as a therapist, it offers both the structure to feel confident and the freedom to follow your client’s unique process—helping them to uncover, integrate, and heal at their own pace.
You’ll leave this training not only with skills and a clear framework, but with a felt sense of what it means to hold such a sacred space.
Early booking is essential—these places fill quickly and the experience is intentionally intimate. This training is held in person in Port Talbot or Newport, South Wales. If that location doesn’t work for you, you can find other SandStory Therapy® trainings around the UK.
Separate dates and locations can be arranged for groups between 4 and 6 – please contact me to arrange.
