Course 2: Making Connections: The Neuropsychology of Trauma
and Sandplay Therapy
Trauma causes complex psychological and neurobiological changes. A disconnect between body and soul often takes place (Levine, 1997) with both protective and persecutory functions (Kalsched, 2013). Sandplay Therapy (SPT) provides an enriched sensory and relational experience that promotes neurodevelopment. As we touch and move sand, play freely, symbolize and self-reflect in the presence of an attuned therapist multiple brain systems are activated and connections are naturally forged. Drawing from the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics ® (NMT, Perry, 2006, 2009), research in neuroscience, case studies, and the three roots of SPT, this presentation will explore a neuropsychological perspective on how SPT heals and transforms trauma (Freedle, 2017).
