sandplay therapy (as developed by Dora Kalff)

Sandplay therapy, developed by Dora Kalff, is a therapeutic approach that allows individuals to express their inner thoughts and feelings through creating scenes in a sandbox using miniature figures, objects, and symbols. It provides a safe, non-verbal space where clients can explore personal issues, often revealing subconscious themes. The process facilitates self-understanding and emotional healing by allowing imagery to emerge naturally, without direct verbal communication. Used with children and adults alike, sandplay therapy supports psychological growth by engaging the imagination and providing insight into complex inner experiences.
