Beschreibung

This book is designed to educate sex therapists and mental health professionals on the power of using sand when treating sexual issues, providing guidance in accessing their clients' unconscious to seek new ways of healing.

Uniquely integrating sex therapy with sand therapy, Dawson describes how understanding and applying non-pathological theories and neuroscience to different modalities, such as Internal Family Systems and Polyvagal Theory, can help clients move forward from shame, sexual dysfunctions, and trauma. The book begins by introducing how therapists can use sand as a doorway into using metaphor and imagery in their practice, with information on how the nervous system keeps somatic experiences trapped in the body being explored. Written in an easy, accessible style, the book also includes handouts, belief cards, and case studies throughout to help therapists see the benefits of using sand with clients in practice.

Including forewords by Dr. Lorraine Freedle and Doug Braun-Harvey, this book is geared toward mental health professionals, such as sex therapists and marriage and family therapists, who are working with individuals and couples seeking treatment from complex trauma and mental and sexual health issues. It will appeal to students as well as advanced mental health clinicians looking to expand their therapeutic tool kit.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'A marvellous volume that served as a great introduction to sand therapy and working with out of control sexual behaviors. I do not use sand or miniatures in my work, and after reading I can see why this work is so important. Dr. Peg Hurley Dawson clearly lays out the theoretical underpinning that guides her practice. She invites you into the therapy space where you can see her facilitate powerful transformations of her clients, working as an attuned witness, and gives them space to deeply connect with their unconscious.'

Ethan Wattley, LPC

'Dr. Peg Hurley Dawson's book shares her passion for her created process of IFSsandtray and integration of modalities (Kalffian Sandplay, et al.) and compels clinicians to explore further how to integrate these methods in practice. This book is easily digested with its personal case studies that provide guided insight into how this process works and its efficacy. This integrated process allows for clinicians from all backgrounds to have access to a method of healing that goes beyond talk-therapy and uses non-pathologizing ways of thinking about and interacting with clients. As an EMDR trained, Internationally Credentialed Sandtray Therapist, IFSsandtray has changed the way I do therapy as I have seen shifts in clients as soon as they complete the process that Dr. Dawson has laid out'
