The infinite holding and integrative powers of the symbol are key in sandplay. In this training, we experience several symbols in depth, and discuss Jung’s ideas about the symbol, the archetype, and the flow of psychic energies. These concepts will be applied to case material.
This course may be taken at any time, and by non-sandplay therapists, too.
