Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain. – C.G. Jung Ten European sandplay therapists describe how severe psychopathologies can be treated in the ’free and protected space’ of the sandbox. The sandplay therapy cases in this book illustrate some of the most difficult, yet also most effective applications: psychoses, borderline syndromes, psychosomatic illnesses, drug addictions, or narcissistic character disorders. Sandplay seems to access areas of human suffering which have otherwise always resisted psychotherapeutic treatment. Recent research in neuroscience explains why this is possible: trauma is not remembered in verbal form – what has never been articulated in words nor ever ’shaped’ cannot be outwardly expressed. In sandplay, however, ’it’ manifests itself as a form, shaped by the hands. The inexpressible can be seen and touched – therefore, it can be transformed.

Book excerpt: Comprehensive in nature, this book provides the foundation for both novice and experienced professionals to perform sandplay therapy effectively with adults, children, and couples. Sandplay utilizes a small tray of wet or dry sand, in which clients create scenes using miniature objects--a nonverbal communication of their internal and external worlds. For therapists interested in exploring the ways that sandplay facilitates growth and healing and in expanding their reservoir of therapeutic tools by incorporating sandplay into their practices, this practical handbook will be an invaluable resource. After presenting the history and benefits of sandplay, the authors describe how to create a sandplay therapy room, including choosing sand containers, finding evocative objects, and displaying objects appropriately. They provide detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to conduct spontaneous and directed sandplay therapy sessions with individuals, couples, children, and families. Various ways of recording the creation of a sand world are described, so that both the process and the product will be saved even after the sand tray is dismantled.Not only does the book establish the foundation for incorporating sandplay into the reader's current psychotherapeutic practice, but it will also stimulate the creative process of the professional. Like the client who sees internal and interpersonal dynamics and dilemmas pictured in the sand, the therapist will find that this powerful experiential tool reveals insights, information, and avenues to explore. The authors illustrate the process with numerous sandplay experiences with clients. They also discuss clients for whom sandplay is contraindicated and some problems that might arise. To encourage the growth of the therapist, they include instructions on personal sandplay work.

The Brief consists of case studies that are drawn from composite situations occurring in actual practice.

Each chapter draws on ethical principles of clinical practice and research. The Brief includes relevant portions of professional ethics codes governing mental health professionals from an array of English-speaking countries—Australia, Canada, the U.K., the U.S., and New Zealand—to maximize the relevance of the text to sandplay therapists globally, whether they are licensed psychologists, marriage and family therapists, counselors, or social workers.

Book excerpt: C .G. and Emma Jung recognized that Dora Kalff had an unusual ability to relate to children and their inner lives and so encouraged her to extend Jung's work to the treatment of children. Kalff brought to this endeavor her experience as a student of languages (including Sanskrit and Chinese), classical piano, and Eastern contemplative practices. She traveled from her native Switzerland to London, where she studied with Margaret Lowenfeld and was influenced by her contacts with D.W. Winnicott.Kalff developed a way of working she called "Sandspiel" or "sandplay." This method introduced a shallow sandbox in which the patient could arrange the sand in whatever form expressed itself from within, with or without the addition of miniatures. In this book, Kalff presents nine case studies, which include sandplay in the therapeutic work. She conveys the importance of the therapist's empathic acceptance of the patient, creating a "free and protected space," as well as the experience required to understand and be affected by symbolic reflections of inner dilemmas and to recognize the psychic organization represented by the patient in the sand.
