Sand Tray Therapy

Sand Tray Therapy offers a powerful, creative way to access and heal emotions that can be difficult to reach through words alone. Using miniatures and the sensory experience of sand, this therapy taps into the right side of the brain — helping children, teens, and adults process trauma, grief, stress, and inner struggles in a safe and symbolic way.

Why Choose Sand Tray Therapy?

Sometimes talking isn't enough — or it's just too hard. Sand Tray Therapy provides a nonverbal path to healing, allowing deep emotions to surface and be worked through in a way that feels natural, safe, and often profound. With decades of utilizing Sand Tray Therapy, I guide clients of all ages through this powerful method to help unlock emotional barriers, discover new insights, and move toward lasting resolution.

Benefits of Sand Tray Therapy

Sand Tray bypasses the logical mind, allowing access to feelings and memories that are often hidden or hard to express verbally.

Creative Problem Solving

By working symbolically, clients can view challenges from new perspectives and find solutions that traditional talk therapy might miss.

Healing Without Pressure

The process feels safe, empowering, and client-led — ideal for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to talk about their experiences.
