About the Book

Every sandtray is filled with symbolic meaning - the key is learning what there is to read and how to read it. This book emphasizes the importance of visual imagery and meticulous observation to interpret sandplays, allowing practitioners to find the authentic meanings in clients' sandplay expression before applying theory or referring to a patient's history. It also explores the impact of the environment on creative work, both in the therapist's studio and externally. Detailed case studies exemplify the themes of each chapter, from practical considerations such as restricted budgets, the sand trays and the physical objects in the sand tray, to the conceptual interactions between developmental play, myth, human experience, art and nature, and the symbolic representations that form sandplay journeys. Whether you're an experienced sandplay therapist or just starting your training, this book will guide you in reading the symbolic elements of your clients' work that support their therapeutic journey.

Review :
I appreciate the way this mammoth text on the subject of Image in the practice of Kalffian Sandplay enfolds within the personal journey of Lenore Steinhardt's engagement with this practice. The content and richness of information will be of much interest to those coming through their Sandplay training into this field of psychotherapy. Lenore Steinhardt's masterful work unveils sandplay's profound healing potential. Through archetypal insights, rich case studies, and mythic amplifications, she beckons readers into a symbolic world that nurtures the soul, fostering profound connections to the unconscious and the numinous. A must-read for all sandplay practitioners. Steinhardt dives deeply into work with image that is highly effective in working to resolve trauma and promote healing through a non-verbal exploration of one's inner world. Both beginning and advanced sandplay therapists will learn from her creative approach.
