Jill Carter is the UK’s leading creative trainer for certified sandplay therapy training courses. All our trainings are particularly suitable for counsellors, psychotherapists, play therapists. Other professionals or volunteers in the mental health and education fields are also welcome. In addition, our sandplay, therapeutic art, trauma and supervision courses can be used as BACP or UKCP Continuing Professional Development.
Sandplay therapy is above all a proven way of working with children to help them express feelings and improve behaviour. In fact, it was developed by the Jungian analyst Dora Kalff. Our evidence-based integrative approach is also great for working with adolescents and adults. That is, to encourage clients who want to try something creative and different.

In addition the courses:

Creative trauma training courses
Research-based creative supervision training
Integrative expressive art training courses
Jill has been teaching sandplay therapy training courses for fifteen years. Our creative arts, supervision and trauma trainings are also based on the most recent and relevant research and case studies. In addition, she draws on her current clinical work as a UKCP and BACP accredited child, adolescent, family and adult psychotherapist & supervisor. She is also an EMDR therapist. In fact, hundreds of students have already done our courses. These are the key reasons why they choose us:
Jill’s sand tray courses have improved my work with children and adults enormously. I have therefore gained a deeper understanding of the theories taught. Also, an even deeper understanding of myself through the experiential learning and reflective practice she has encouraged. I highly recommend these courses. Jill is indeed a supportive, knowledgeable and patient tutor.

If you are reading this, you are probably already drawn to the idea of using creativity in your work. So, we can teach you to bring together the magic of play with solid theories and research. This blend therefore makes an effective and enjoyable way of working with clients of all ages.
More than anything, this course taught me to “feel” and to trust my instincts personally and professionally. I am more attuned to my clients’ emotions and experiences because I have allowed myself to feel my own hurt and joy. As a result, I have a deeper, more connected relationship with my clients. So, I am confident that what I am now reflecting back to my clients is their own experience, not mine.
