Do you have relationship anxiety or OCD and are nervous to be misunderstood in therapy? Have you made your rounds with talk therapists and not made the progress you imagine is possible? OR, are you a parent who is looking for play therapy for your child that will bring results faster than traditional play therapy? Well, you are BOTH in the right place!
Sand tray therapy can serve as a transformative experience, helping clients to navigate their emotional landscapes and cultivate resilience. This hands-on, nonverbal process encourages self-expression, promotes healing, and fosters a sense of empowerment as individuals confront and process their challenges in a supportive environment.
I provide individuals, particularly those experiencing anxiety, depression, or trauma, with a safe and creative space to explore their emotions and experiences. With the use of sand tray approach, you will externalize your inner thoughts and feelings, often accessing insights that may be difficult to articulate in traditional talk therapy.
