This course returns us to the roots of Jungian sandplay
therapy in Margaret Lowenfeld's early twentieth century
innovations in the field of child psychotherapy. We explore
the core value of play in development and therapeutic change
through the reading H.G. Wells' book, Floor Games, the
original text that inspired Lowenfeld's World Technique, and
subsequently Dora Kalff's application of miniature worlds in
Jungian child treatment. In this course we investigate the
function of miniature worlds in creative stimulation and
growth.
This is a self-paced, read and test class ~ Enjoy!
