Sand Tray Scrapbook: Bipolar Disorder

The first tray is from a session with a child with diagnoses of Bipolar Disorder, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, and Mental Retardation. He stated he didn’t want to come to the session that day, but would do a sand tray. Completed his tray and walked out!

The next two trays were completed by a child with normal intellectual functioning and a diagosis of Bipolar Disorder. He has a life time history of rageful and out of control behavior that has only begun to get under control in the last 12 months. He is now 12 years old.

Sand Tray Scrapbook: Asperger’s

I thought it might be fun and to start a series of entries with pics from my own sand tray sessions. It’s interesting to see the results of sand tray therapy in the context of various difficulties and disorders the participant is struggling with.

This first picture is from a session with a child with Asperger’s.

The child was referred for anxiety and school problems. He spent a lot of time pouring sand over walls and was very adamant that he wanted monster (barely discernable in the middle of the picture) to be seen.

If you are interested in Sand Tray Therapy or want to share your own sand tray experiences, leave a comment or email your pictures with a brief note about each to jcwilburn@gmail.com. I think this could be a great feature that many people could participate in.
