Playing opens us to curiosity and wonder. Working with symbols and metaphors in the sand within the safe container of the reflective space provides opportunities to identify and approach unconscious material; access innate wisdoms; experience transformational shifts in perspective; and discover new meanings. A nurturing, nourishing and integrating reflexive practice for healing professionals of diverse disciplines.

Welcome to the "silent workshop of the psyche". (Bradway & McCord, 1997).
Sandplay offers a gentle, non-directive and deeply connecting reflective supervision activity for practitioners of diverse disciplines, approaches and experience. Through symbol and metaphor, freely explore your inner and outer worlds; discover new insights; and make meanings in the safe, nonjudgmental container of the sand tray. Sandplay experience is not necessary, just bring your curiosity. And enjoy the process!

Empower neural activation, bidirectional ('bottom up' and 'top down') mind/body interactions and internal relational connection. An organically expressive approach to reflecting, growing and savouring.

Emerson, 1841
I recognise the deep and continuous connection to Country of First Nations Peoples. I acknowledge the Peoples
of the Dharawal and Dhurga language groups of the Shoalhaven and Jervis Bay Territory as rightful custodians of the lands, skies, seas and waterways. Walking on Country.
I value the traditional wisdom and healing practices of all cultures.
