🌈✨ NEW RELEASE! Transformative Expressions Sand Tray Card Deck ✨🌈
A powerful new tool for clinicians, play therapists, and anyone supporting LGBTQ+ youth, adults, and families.
Building on the acclaimed two-volume series Transformative Expressions in Play Therapy: Working with LGBTQ+ Clients, this brand-new Sand Tray Card Deck brings the insights and practices from all 32 chapters to life. With 90+ therapeutic prompts across six interconnected domains, the deck guides clients in creating meaningful sand tray scenes that foster storytelling, metaphor, and self-expression, all within a safe, nonverbal space.
Designed through a strengths-based, trauma-informed lens, this deck supports:
✨ Identity development and affirmation
✨ Emotional expression and regulation
✨ Relational awareness and connection
✨ Exploration of cultural context and systemic influences
The prompts explore themes like authenticity, resilience, visibility, belonging, safety, and intersectionality, making this an essential resource for:
🌟 Gender expansive youth
🌟 LGBTQ+ clients seeking affirmation
🌟 Trauma survivors
🌟 Neurodivergent individuals
🌟 Clients navigating cultural or relational tensions
Through symbolic play and narrative exploration, clients build coping skills, deepen self-awareness, articulate values, and strengthen their sense of agency—personally, relationally, and systemically.
🟦 Whether you're a therapist, educator, or healing professional, this deck offers a versatile, developmentally sensitive tool for truly transformative work.
