Sandstories are already, in one week, a positive tool in my therapeutic practice! Thank you, from myself and my clients! I cant wait for the next level!
This 2-day experiential workshop is the core training in SandStory Therapy® and successful completion leads to participants becoming a Registered SandStory Therapist.
The course will cover:
Over the weekend you will have an opportunity to get a sensory experience in the sand, learning in-person how to use this innovative and cutting edge approach with your clients whether they are 8 years or 80 years old. SandStory Therapy® helps clients work deeply and safely with all aspects of their life.
The benefits of all sand therapies are vast but SandStory Therapy® is unique in the way it invites the therapist to work within a 5 stage model. This model helps them feel confident and competent in offering this magical medium to clients.
Using a gentle, warm and wondering approach, the SandStory Therapist can support the client to bring greater conscious awareness of their unconscious inner self, by holding space for client to ‘tell their story in the sand’.
The wonderful thing about using the SandStory Therapy® approach is how inviting change and exploration of possibility in the sand, can lead to profound change in real life. Adults clients often notice deep shifts in their healing journey when working with sand.
Participants will leave the weekend with a sound understanding of how to use SandStory Therapy® safely in their work with children and adults and open themselves to a new style of working.
A private Facebook group will be available after the training to support participants to implement SandStory Therapy® into their work. You can share ideas, questions or exciting symbol finds with Shana and other therapists.
Assessment:
On finishing the course, participants will need to complete 2 tasks to qualify.
The course is limited to very small numbers – a maximum of 6 people, so the learning and support can be tailored to each person.
A workbook to guide you through the materials and for reference afterwards will be provided on the first day.
Please get in touch at [email protected] with any questions or to discuss any learning needs or requirements.
I hope to welcome you to the world of SandStory Therapy®
This course is suitable for qualified therapists and counsellors only (or those very near completion of their training) This is due to the skills and knowledge needed to practice SandStory Therapy® safely with clients in a clinical context.

The training was delivered with being mindful of each person’s individual processes and also as a group. Shana held the group and individuals with compassion and adjusted her timings/training day to the needs of the group. Thank you.
The SandStory Therapy training helped me to reflect on my current practice and deepen my understanding of the power of using symbols and sand with clients. The setting for the training was superb and added to the positive energy I experienced during and after the training sessions.
Thank you for a fabulous weekend of learning. I went from knowing very little about the approach to feeling confident leading a full SandStory Therapy session with my partner from the group.
