Sand tray therapy is a non-verbal, expressive counselling approach that can be used with children, teenagers and adults. It originated from Margaret Lowenfeld's 'World Technique' where miniature objects and sand were used together as a form of communication.
It provides a safe space for exploring thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be difficult to articulate verbally. By creating scenes or worlds in the sand using miniature objects, individuals can visually represent their inner world, uncover hidden feelings, and work through challenges in a creative and therapeutic way.
Sand tray therapy is particularly effective in addressing issues such as trauma, anxiety, grief, and relationship difficulties. It allows individuals to process their emotions at their own pace, promoting insight, healing, and personal growth. The non-judgmental and supportive environment fosters a sense of safety, making it a versatile and powerful tool in counselling for people of all ages.
