Beyond the Stories We Tell Ourselves

Where Curiosity, Connection, and Creativity Awaken Possibility

Book Tammi to Speak

The stories we tell ourselves shape how we lead, learn, connect, and grow. When those stories shift, new possibilities emerge.

Tammi Van Hollander is a TEDx speaker, international keynote speaker, psychotherapist, author, educator, and founder of Main Line Play Therapy. Through storytelling, creativity, neuroscience, play, movement, and experiential learning, she helps audiences strengthen connection, embrace curiosity, and discover new possibilities for growth, leadership, learning, and well-being.

For more than 30 years, Tammi has helped children, parents, families, professionals, educators, and organizations navigate challenges, strengthen relationships, and discover new possibilities for growth and connection.

We are often quick to judge what we don't understand. When we begin to understand what drives our reactions—and the reactions of others—judgment can give way to curiosity, frustration can soften into understanding, and compassion can begin to grow.

Participants Leave With:

  • Stronger relationships and deeper connection

  • Greater curiosity, compassion, and understanding

  • Practical tools for navigating challenges and change

  • Renewed creativity, resilience, and engagement

  • New possibilities for growth and meaningful change

  • "Tammi took us on a sandtray journey and guided us through theory, the mechanics of what is needed, practical examples and through the experience itself. You taught us without judgement and watched over us like a guardian angel to ensure that we were all safe through our own experiential practice in the sandtray. Your warmth and passion transcended the Zoom platform!"

  • "Tammi presents with a positive attitude that is contagious. She has a clear message that we need to create relationships with the children in our classroom for recognizing them for their greatness rather then punishing them for their shortcomings. Tammi gives teachers the tools to be successful in their classroom."

  • "What an amazing experience! I signed up for Tammi's training because I knew I needed more knowledge to ethically use sandtray in the therapy space without causing harm. I left the training with knowledge, tools, and feeling equipped to do sandtray. The following week at work I immediately began to put what I had learned into place using the sand. This training was special, sandtray is special, Tammi Van Hollander is special and if you are able to take this highly recommend it. "
