“…On reviewing recent Sandplay Therapy related studies from 2010 to 2020, it can be seen that concrete topics are self-growth (Jang, 2010;Chang & Yang, 2019), psychological emotion and stress (Kim & Jang, 2012;Lee & Jang, 2020), communication and interpersonal relations (Maeng, Jang, 2014;Park & Cho, 2020;Yoo, 2015), maladjustment (Park et al, 2013), parental separation (Kim, 2018;Chung & Jang, 2016), therapist burnout (Jeong et al, 2022;Jeong & Jeong, 2018), diagnostic disorders (Kwak & Kim, 2022;Sim, 2021), and symbol studies (Kim & Lee, 2021;Park, 2018;Lee, Jang, 2018;Jang, 2015;Hong, Kim, 2022) indicating that studies to verify the effect of Sandplay Therapy are dominant. Among them, therapist-related topics include a study related to novice therapists (Jeong & Jeong, 2018) and a study on co-transference (Kowen, 2020).…”

In this study, we aimed to develop a countertransference scale based on the therapist-client relationship model in Sandplay Therapy. Additionally, we sought to validate the developed scale by examining its relationship with therapeutic alliance and the therapeutic relationship. Sandplay Therapy practitioners participated in data collection. The collected data were analyzed by calculating frequencies and percentages, conducting factor analysis, reliability testing, and correlation analysis. As a result, the countertransference scale comprised 30 items organized into five subfactors: ‘Mother-Child,’ ‘Power,’ ‘Scenery,’ ‘Shamanism,’ and ‘Wounded Healer.’ The validation of construct validity revealed significant positive correlations between the entire countertransference scale and the entire therapeutic alliance scale, as well as between the entire countertransference scale and the entire therapeutic relationship scale. The analysis revealed significant positive correlations between the overall reverse transfer scale and the alliance scale, as well as significant positive correlations between the overall reverse transfer scale and the therapeutic relationship scale.

This paper discusses silent group Sandplay (SP) with early adolescents in circumstances of deprivation, neglect and trauma. SP offered in multiple layers of temenos in a children’s home environment provided a conducive context for inner processing. Considered from a Jungian perspective, SP revealed inner processing at work. Initial portrayals included threats, conflict and chaos, the need for protection and containment and revealed vulnerability. Later SP images and processes depicted progression and regression, uniquely creative together as well as containment and activation of movement. Silent group SP supported and facilitated transcendental and self encounters that included centring, integration, wholeness, numinous and newfound energy. The implications are potentially far-reaching in terms of the relative affordability, accessibility, efficiency and cultural suitability of this intervention that is not reliant on the verbal skills of the participants or the therapist and can be offered to several individuals simultaneously.

Natural disasters occur with increasing frequency every year in our country and around the world. The largest forest fires, in recorded history, occurred in Türkiye in 2021, and the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes, called the disaster of the century, occurred in 2023. Between these dates, our country has struggled with disasters such as avalanches and floods, as well as earthquakes and fires. Due to their unexpected nature and devastating impact on individuals' lives, natural disasters can also have shocking effects on individuals' mental health. Undoubtedly, many people have been affected by these disasters. However, children are a risky group among those affected by natural disasters because their coping skills are limited and they have not yet achieved their independence. In addition, it is known that traumatic experiences in the first years of life negatively affect the individual's development. Therefore, it is thought that the psychological support provided to children after a natural disaster is important. In this sense, play therapy appears as one of the effective intervention methods in the psychological support service provided after natural disasters. The aim of this study was to enable mental health professionals working with children exposed to disaster to understand possible psychopathologies and to create a framework for the role of play therapy in intervening.
