Training Description
Workshop for experiential exposure to Sand Tray Play Therapy.
Non-directive, child centered play therapy uses a “way of being fully
present” in the environment of play. Utilizing communication skills of
tracking behavior, reflecting content, reflecting feelings thoughts and
ideas are learned in this workshop through experiential sand tray play.
Encouraging esteem building, facilitating decision-making, and
facilitating responsibility are also skills that are utilized by play
therapists with children. Working through the safe and protected
environment utilizing the therapist and toys are practiced in the
microcosm of the sand tray experience. This workshop will provide an
overview of the history, principles, and neurobiology of play therapy
involving sand trays as well as provide the participant an opportunity
to practice both the builder and the witness role in the sand tray play
therapy experience.
Objectives
Participants will relax, have fun and
- Learn about the therapeutic rationale for play therapy using SandTray
- Experience practice as sand play builder in play therapy.
- Experience practice with skills utilized as sand play witness for others in play therapy.
- Consider the neurobiological evidence in sand and play.
