“…Kalff (1980) desenvolveu seu método a partir de pesquisas anteriores tanto de Lowenfeld (Mitchell & Friedman, 1994), como de Bolgar e Fischer (1940) e também de Bühler (1951), que utilizavam o World Technique (nome original da técnica psicológica proposta por Lowenfeld), principalmente como instrumento de psicodiagnóstico. Essas pesquisas incluíam estudos de correlação e pretendiam testa r a capacidade do instrumento para diagnosticar patologias, comparável ao Rorschach e outras técnicas projetivas reconhecidas (Mitchell & Friedman, 1994, p. 115).…”

Este trabalho apresenta o Jogo de Areia conforme concebido por Kalff (1980) numa abordagem teórica junguiana. Consideram-se alguns dos estudos que validam sua aplicação em serviços públicos de saúde, assim como com pacientes com câncer, vítimas de abusos e outros casos clínicos. A expansão clínica do Jogo de Areia como um método psicoterapêutico não verbal é também discutida. Considera-se e justifica-se, ainda, a necessidade do uso do Jogo de Areia como objeto de pesquisa. Também são apresentadas algumas possibilidades de ampliação do Jogo de Areia como um instrumento de pesquisa acadêmica na psicologia clínica, enfocando-se suas propriedades projetivas e diagnósticas.

“…and others who have provided a vast body of research-based knowledge. Sandplay is generally known by psychotherapists and analysts of Jungian persuasion, for whom it holds a special place as a paradigm of what Jung called "active imagination," an activity that facilitates the process of individuation (Stewart, 1990).Although sandplay was brought to the United States by Buhler (1951), it is generally believed that Lowenfeld called this method of expressive art therapy "The World Technique." Kalff (198 I), however, has had the greatest effect on developing the approach, formulating theoretical principles, and training many practitioners throughout the world.…”

This article presents a rationale for using expressive art therapy with clients, and presents many of the forms and techniques that can be used. Included are discussions on art and drawing, play, sand tray work, writing. and storytelling. Resources for additional learning are recommended.Expressive art therapy attempts to reach clients with various problems through artistic expression of what lies within, and to fulfill the human need for selfexpression in a society that is becoming increasingly mechanized. Expressive art therapy is a vehicle for awakening dormant creativity, whereas psychotherapy assists clients in verbalizing their unspoken and unresolved conflicts. It contributes to restoring the cognitivehntellectual, emotionallaffect, and creativehnspiration vacuums in today's stress-driven, technological, impersonal, and often unsafe world.Expressive art therapy can lead clients of all ages to a better understanding of their unconscious through interpretation of developmental phases and of psychic structure as shown in their art work. Expressive art therapy is a means for accessing hidden resources and provides clients with a vehicle for expressing their internal conflicts and to do so throughout their life span. These therapies also help in the study of the ego (Kramer, 1993), as indicated by art therapists who have become aware of the relationship between graphic form and character development. With the introduction of psychoanalytic ego psychology, art therapists were able to recognize that inner consistency had a direct correlation with the unified expression of form and content in their clients' art work. The stronger the ego, the more cohesive the form and content become.In general, children are more receptive to expressive art therapy than adult clients who prefer an intellectual, verbal approach (Coleman & Farris-Dufrene, 1996), although clients of all ages can benefit from it. As in verbally oriented therapy, the relationship between the client and the counselor is the main factor in the progress and course of therapy. The dynamics between the two people are the primary tools, whether the client is talking to the therapist, playing with toys, or remaining quiet. The constancy is the presence of the therapist.

Play themes, play characteristics, object use and narratives were categorized according to the Sandbox Observation Scale for Children (Reed, 1975) (see Appendix C), Buhler's (1951a) clinical characteristics (aggressive, unpeopled, empty, closed, rigid, and disorganized), Harper's (1991) world themes (sexual, withdrawal, nurturance, depression/ loss, protection, conflict, chaos, fantasy/wish fulfilment, and domestic), and Arnold's (1962) story sequence analysis approach. Definitions SAND TRAY: An apparatus filled with sand in which the client places miniature objects to make a scene.…”
