We all have unique and
personal ways of coping with stress and loss. But sometimes, despite our best
efforts to get through tough times, we need a little outside help. That's
where counseling comes in. Talking to a professional counselor can help you
gain insight into problems, grow as a person, and learn positive ways of
coping with life's challenges.

What is Sandplay Therapy?
Sandplay is similar to dreamwork, as it
involves tapping into your subconscious and leads to healing of the psyche.
It has been described as a "waking dream" and is both healing and energizing
to the client. Sandplay involves having the client choose figurines to place
in the sand to create a scene unique to the client. Sandplay miniatures
include "everything that is in the world, everything that has been, and
everything that can be" -Amatruda & Simpson, 1997.
