SandStory Therapy®
Level 2
In the Sandology of Level 2, came a concoction that had brewed for some years before being added to, stirred, left to stew and marinate in the cauldron of creativity and then served!
​
Over the years of training, reading, research and practice, I felt drawn deeper into an amazing inner world that we possess - that of the unconscious. The working of the psyche through it's energy, terrain and contents is fascinating - thank you Carl Jung! - and I was eager to share this.
​
Level 2 was also created as a stand-alone training and as such is open for Sand Therapists from other approaches, as well as those who are qualified at Level 1 in SandStory Therapy®.

Participant reviews
Vicky Spink
I found the SandStory Therapy® Level 2 training to be very engaging and worthwhile.
Delivered by Lara using her usual gentle and caring approach, she led a deep journey into the exploration of archetypes and energies within the sand.
Beautifully designed resources backed up the training with a feeling of nurture being provided throughout.
Diane O'Donoghue
Level 2 SandStory Therapy® Training was a truly joyous & magical experience. I attribute this not only to the content but to the very special person delivering it.
Lara takes you on an enchanting and soulful journey of knowledge, and a deeper understanding of the richness of working with sand.
It is hard to sum up this training except to say that as with all Lara's trainings it continues to resonate with me both on a personal and professional level and I am left wanting more
Anna Charleston
Lara’s training never disappoints.
Her Level 2 SandStory Therapy® training has completely enriched my understanding of working with children in the sand.
I had always been fascinated to learn more about the inner world of the psyche and the influence of archetypes and chakras.
I thoroughly enjoyed this training and I feel privileged to be able to apply it to my work with children in Play Therapy.
