Abstract
The history, psychotherapeutic process, and expanding research and applications
of sandplay therapy are described. First developed in London in the late 1920’s,
and further developed in Switzerland in the late 1950’s, continuous publication of
descriptive and research literature on a widening range of applications of sandplay
has added to, and validated, a growing international interest in this therapeutic
modality. The expanding, practice-based sandplay literature, primarily based on
qualitative reports using phenomenological and case study methodology, indicates
that sandplay is being used as both a stand-alone modality and as a welcome
adjunct to a wide range of therapeutic approaches.
