Today our guest is, Lacey Fisher, a licensed professional counselor, she specializes in perinatal mental health and uses sand therapy as an expressive art in her practice. Sand therapy is a projective mode of psychotherapy that allows clients to process their interpersonal issues using miniatures or figurines in a sand tray. It provides a nonverbal way of communicating and helps clients explore their unconscious thoughts and emotions. Sand therapy can be used with both children and adults and creates a therapeutic distance that makes it easier to share difficult experiences. Lacey also incorporates other expressive arts, such as drawing, to help clients process their grief and trauma. The conversation explores common themes and experiences in perinatal loss and the importance of validation and support. Lacey emphasizes the role of sand tray therapy in helping clients process their grief and connect with their emotions. She discusses the need for therapists to create a safe space for clients to share their stories and express their feelings. Lacey also highlights the significance of finding a therapist who understands and specializes in perinatal loss. The conversation concludes with a reminder to moms that their grief is valid and the importance of seeking community and support.
