The use of expressive arts in counseling to facilitate client self-awareness is established (Oaklander, 1988). Axline (1969) discussed the use of play techniques as a natural medium of expression for children and adolescents. However, the efficacy of play in counseling has been demonstrated for clients of all ages (Markos, Coker & Jones, 2006; 2007). This presentation will provide an overview of sandtray therapy and practical information for how it can be used with adolescents and adults.
