This two-day workshop, both didactic and experiential, is designed for a small, intimate group (max. 8 participants). We will explore the use and interplay of Sandtray, Expressive Arts and Active Imagination both in a clinical context and in self-inquiry. Our focus will be on various techniques of grounding meditation, guided imagery and active imagination, and how to integrate these in an intermodal approach (sandtray, art, writing, drama and movement).

I am grateful to have facilitated many ongoing growth groups for men for more than 35 years. These ongoing (once per week) men's groups are for men who want to move their lives toward greater personal competence, self-assurance, emotional balance, and awareness, as well as be better leaders at home and elsewhere while experiencing joy, engagement, contentment, and satisfaction. Each individual brings issues and challenges; the willingness to remain open and engaged in the group reaps extraordinary support, guidance, and friendship. The willingness to reach out to others builds a sense of positivity and gratitude.
