The Full Story
Sand Tray Therapy
Sand Tray Therapy is a unique modality for processing trauma. While all therapies CAN be somatic, Sand Tray is fundamentally somatic. It works directly with the creative side of the brain to find images that open up exploration to tell a story without words. The sand tray can also be a container for emotions or experiences that can be too big to hold in our daily lives.
Containment
The sand tray is a safe container for anything that feels too much for us to hold. It welcomes any experience and allows just enough space for what we are able to hold.
The Sand
Our sand is environmentally sourced from Jurassic Sands, a geologist founded locally run business in Salt Lake City and is 200 million years old. There is wisdom and experience in this space. And it's just cool that you can hold sand the dinosaurs walked on!
