Dr Bill Smukler practices his art in Philadelphia. He has explored the use of "mass time" in deep feeling psychotherapy in the 40-day "Noah's Ark" continuous psychotherapy. He also conducts training for therapists in his particular methodology at the "Ark." Bill, at age 84, will be leading the "Ark" in January, 2000. He has taken sandplay techniques to new levels by innovating a unique format of sandplay sharing with large groups.
