Abstract: 'Ten European sandplay therapists describe how severe psychopathologies can be treated in the "free and protected space" of the sandbox. The sandplay therapy cases in this book illustrate some of teh most difficult, yet also most effective applications: psychoses, borderline syndromes, psychosomatic illnesses, drug addictions, or narcissistic character disorders. Sandplay seems to access areas of human suffering which have otherwise always resisted psychotherapeutic treatment.'
