Sandtray Room

sandtrays with figurines in shelves


Sandtray and Sandplay are forms of therapy that allow clients to create their own representations of their inner world or experiences using miniature figures and sand. These creations can become metaphors of the client’s life and serve as a means for the client to reflect on conflicts, obstacles, and self-acceptance. Sandtray & Sandplay therapy are beneficial for a range of ages and populations. As in art therapy, work within the sandtray can be carried out non-verbally and contains symbolism of the client’s inner world (Zhou, 2009). The sandtray room, located in the Insalaco Center for Studio Arts, Room 205 at Marywood University, enables students to directly experience and learn about the process of incorporating sand and miniatures into therapy.
