Sand Tray

 Sand Tray 


Children and adult of all ages can benefit from counseling that uses a Sand Tray.  Working in the sand is a favorite for many clients.


The Sand tray helps you create solutions to your problems including anger management, anxiety, depression, divorce, grief and loss, low self-esteem, school related problems, social issues, trauma and many other issues you may be experiencing.


Sand tray allows the client the ability to find the words needed to express trauma that is often stuck in the non-verbal part of our brain.


Using a variety of miniature items and placing them in a tray of sand, clients will create a world that represents their internal struggles or conflicts.  After the sand tray is complete, the counselor and client typically discuss what was observed.  The client may then choose to rearrange the items based on the discussion.
