Reviews and Endorsements

"Old and New Horizons is a beautiful depiction of using mindfulness in Sandplay. The depth and intimacy of these cases is enriched by the mindful attention of both clients and therapists. There is much to benefit from and much to learn from this integrated approach." - Jack Kornfield, PhD, Teacher of Vipassana Meditation, writer, co-founder of Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachussets and of Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California.

"Martin Kalff introduces a profound, fresh approach to case study deeply rooted in the wisdom of the body and a lifetime of meditation practice and international teaching. Readers will take an enchanting journey into Kalff’s consultation room with his Italian colleagues that stimulates the brain, opens the heart, and wraps a warm blanket around the soul. His masterful weaving of depth psychology, neuroscience, and mindfulness techniques make this seminal work for sandplay therapists a useful resource for psychotherapists and supervisors across disciplines." - Lorraine Razzi Freedle, PhD, American Board of Pediatric Neuropsychology (ABPdN), President of Sandplay Therapists of America.

"With thoroughness and sensitivity, Martin Kalff introduces new theories and perspectives impacting knowledge of Sandplay Therapy. His many years of experience as a therapist, meditation teacher, and consultant bring fresh viewpoints into focus. Examples from clinical sandplay sessions, as well as the work of his colleagues illustrate a deep convergence of Jungian depth psychology, meditation practices, mindfulness, and neural integration. Careful analysis of the somatic experiences of client and therapist, as a clinical dyad, invite a new lens in which to observe and appreciate emerging ideas in this unique therapy." - Judy D. Zappacosta, Marriage, Family, Child Therapist, Certified Teaching Member of International Society for Sandplay Therapy (ISST) and of Sandplay Therapists of America (STA).
