Upcoming Training

Training in Sandplay Therapy is modality-specific continuing education and does not by itself provide the qualifications to practise psychotherapy. It is the responsibility of all professionals to ensure that their use of Sandplay Therapy complies with provincial licensure or registration in order to practise under the umbrella of their chosen profession.
