"Sandplay therapy is a remarkably effective and deeply moving experience. I never thought that “playing” with symbols in the sand would have such a meaningful and therapeutic impact on me, but it has helped me recognise so much about myself in a very different way than talking therapy does..."
"I have recently attended a sandtray workshop with Masha. She provides a warm and welcoming environment, in such a stunning room. I felt really at ease and comfortable. Masha is very knowledgeable and keen to share her knowledge and experience. I would highly recommend her training."
"The gong bath meditations help to calm my buzzing mind and help with the anxiety I am feeling at this moment. I find them very relaxing and sleep soundly after. Masha is a great host and helps you to feel at ease."
