This is a unique opportunity for arts therapists and other mental health professionals to learn about Trauma Healing at the Clay Field in an intensive training program of two weeks duration in 2025. Especially those from overseas prefer the structure of an intensive training rather than coming for many individual weekends.

Part I focuses on working with adults, and Part II on Clay Field Therapy® with children. Healing Trauma in Children with Clay Field Therapy will be offered online commencing biannually in February and August. It will be released as 12 modules over 24 weeks with 12 months access to the full course.

The venue for Part I will be at Claerwen Retreat, a secluded 400acre resort along the famous Great Ocean Road in Australia. This is a study-beach-holiday experience for professional and personal development. The next Clay Field Therapy Summer School at Claerwen will be offered in January-February 2025.
