Can you share your general location so people can give you a recommendation in your area?

Why do you particularly want Sandtray?

It's literally a mini sandbox with little toys /cards. Any child therapist can use a ton of modalities for a 9 yo - Play, art, cbt, music etc and can even do sand if that's what you want. I'd look for an expert child therapist instead of a Sandtray one.

Rivky Yungreis in Flatbush. You didn’t say your location. She’s amazing too of the line. I went there for my son but she didn’t end up having any availability she met with me and my husband.

Sand therapy is trauma specific and can do things that cbt and traditional talk therapy can't do. A therapist who uses sand as a modality is not the same as a trained sand play trauma therapist. And a sand play therapist can also do play, art, music, etc.

Yes, thank you!

I'm in NY - being that sessions will be done remotely the therapist does not need to be local.
Seeking specifically male.
