Using Tarot in Therapy - The Next Steps

Tarot is a unique symbolic system of personal development dating back at least to Renaissance times. In therapy, it is a powerful tool to get deeper insight and for the therapist to creatively explore clients’ issues.

In our first workshop we looked at the archetypes and symbolism of the tarot and showed how you can start to use it in therapy.

This follow-on workshop, which will count towards your CPD, will be using an experiential approach to understand how to use Tarot proactively to create attitudes and situations that we need for the next step in our personal development.
