I’m a firm believer that regardless of age and race we all possess the agency and power to grow. As a man of color, creating a safe space for our culture is a priority in my practice. The hurdles of acculturation, sexism, and discrimination within our community are normalized enough to not question them. Through the use of cognitive-behavioral interventions and mindfulness techniques clients will be empowered to identify what they would like to change in their lives.

External and internal roadblocks can affect our actions. In our mind we can replay one event over a dozen times, that plan various outcomes to a single upcoming event, that compare our journey to others, that judge and criticize our thoughts, feelings and actions, that spiral to large (often painful) conclusions from seemingly small events.

Sandplay Therapists

What problems are best treated with sandplay therapy?

Research has examined this therapy’s utility in young people and found positive results. It has been shown to be useful for those who suffer from autism, attention deficit disorder, anxiety, and or aggressive behavior. Children who have suffered abuse, neglect, or trauma have also seen improvement through this therapy. Abused children are often fearful and anxious about their safety, making verbal communication more difficult.

Is sandplay therapy suitable for children and teenagers?

Children and adolescents are good candidates for sandplay therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts, let alone the emotions they are experiencing. Through this play therapy, they will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.

Is sandplay suitable for adults?

This type of therapy can be useful for adults who have difficulties expressing themselves. People who have suffered neurological changes after a brain injury or because of a traumatic event might be good candidates for this therapy. In fact, anything that has had an effect on the brain, such as substance abuse, can make non-verbal sandplay a valuable option.

Does sandplay therapy work?

There have been studies on the effectiveness of sandplay therapy, and it appears to improve difficult behaviors in children. It may also enhance self-esteem and lessen feelings of physical anxiety as well as hypersensitivity. This type of therapy is based on non-verbal communication and may feel less threatening to the individual.
