The advanced series is geared to the dedicated Sandplay practitioner who is interested in assessing some of the deeper issues that are encountered during a sandplay process with either children, adults or families. The topics are generated by the interests of the group and, in the past, have included different diagnostic categories such as depression, anxiety, attention-deficit disorders, sex abuse, death, divorce, etc. These are interwoven with an in-depth look at some of the major archetypes that are encountered including the role of the Gods and Goddesses as they may be witnessed in sand, myths, fairy tales, etc. In the sand trays produced by the participants, the theme of the spiritual journey usually pervades throughout. A number of participants have shared that the experiential portion has contributed significantly to their personal as well as professional development.

Participants will be encouraged to take advantage of case consultations this year that will be included as part of the schedule of each workshop.

The group usually meets on the first Saturday of each month; however, there are no meetings during January and February. For 2007 - 2008, the dates are:

 Oct. 6, Nov. 3, Dec. 1, March 1, April 6, May 3, June 7. Groups meet from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.  Participants bring a brown-bag lunch - coffee, tea and snacks are provided.

Occasionally dates need to be changed due to circumstances such as conflicts with religious observances.
