Download or read book Sandplay Therapy written by Barbara Boik and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2000 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Download or read book Healing and Transformation in Sandplay written by Ruth Ammann and published by Open Court Publishing. This book was released on 1991 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sandplay is a powerful method of psychotherapy, based on practical, creative modelling - literally a "hands-on" approach to healing the whole person. Sandplay has both diagnostic and therapeutic value, and is efficacious for adults and children. Since there are no preconceived ideas about "art" in sand, there is a wonderful freedom and flow in using sand creatively. This book focuses on the process of sandplay and how it works. Ammann's account draws upon her wide knowledge of myth and folk tale, but remains a practical work, dealing systematically with the "how-to" details, the necessary role of sand pictures in enhancing the self-regulation of the psyche, the two routes from psyche to sand pictures, and the symbolic interpretation of spatial phenomena. Ammann illustrates these principles in several case histories. "Healing and Transformation in Sandplay" contains a plea to therapists to make greater use of sandplay, alongside classical dream analysis. As a means to liberate the forces of the brain's right hemisphere - the intuitive and bodily rather than logical or rational - sandplay activates deep layers of the unconscious in the service of healing and development, layers hard to reach with more verbal methods of therapy.

Download or read book Sandplay written by Dora Kalff and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-30 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
