Reviews
Through personal and clinical stories, Rosalind Heiko enlivened and engaged me in A Therapist's Guide to the Girl Heroine's Journey in Sandplay. The flow of a "journey" in sandplay provides a compelling narrative. Her exploration of the symbol of the gate for liminal transitional space, the amplification of the fairy tale of Vasilisa that unpacks critical aspects of the tale and her description of the "sandplay journey map" were all were absorbing and vital. This book reads like a long story that one might listen to around a fire that illuminates the room. The book is enriched with Heiko's references and poetry. I recommend this book to clinicians interested in a template for the girl's heroine journey as seen in unfolding images and symbols in sandplay. -- Lauren Cunningham, Jungian analyst, founding member of Sandplay Therapists of America and the founding editor of the Journal of Sandplay Therapy.
This is an exciting book that will capture the imagination of child and play therapy practitioners at all levels of experience written by a highly experienced, compassionate, and astute clinician. -- David A. Crenshaw, PhD, clinical director of the Children's Home of Poughkeepsie, coeditor with Anne Stewart of Play Therapy: A Comprehensive Guide to Theory and Practice, and coeditor with Cathy Malchiodi of Creative Arts and Play Therapy for Attachment Problems
