Sand Tray 101: Getting Started on Your Journey-Member
APT Members enjoy a discounted rate on this 6 hour, live in person, foundational workshop with presenter Courtney A. Brandon, LPC/MHSP, RPT.
This foundational training is designed for the mental health clinician who wants to learn the basics of the use of sand tray therapy in their play therapy work, and how to incorporate this modality with play-based expressive arts therapies for clients of all ages. This workshop will rely heavily on experiential opportunities as lived experience is the best way to learn and get a felt sense of the magic of expressing oneself through the use of sand and miniatures via play therapy techniques. As such, participants may choose to bring 10-15 of their own miniatures, but this is not required.
This event will be capped at 24 participants to allow for in-depth exploration and discussion of the topic. There will be several experiential play therapy opportunities to implement and process directives that can be used with a variety of client ages and presenting concerns.
Friday, September 19th, 2025 9:30am-5:00pm (including breaks)
Location: 5705 Uptain Rd, Chattanooga, TN 37411
