SandStory Therapy® combines the therapeutic use of sand and symbols with elements of storytelling so that the client is able to 'tell their story in the sand'.

​

Working with sand facilitates the client to explore what might be held in their unconscious and slowly bring it into conscious awareness where they can then reflect on their thoughts, experiences and associated feelings.

 

SandStory Therapy® does not require any particular creative ability or storytelling talents. Stories naturally emerge as we try to make meaning and understand ourselves and our experiences. SandStory Therapists are trained to offer the structure and guidance and to respond to the emotional and symbolic content of an individual's unique story to promote insight, self-awareness, healing, and growth.
