Table 2 Progress of sand play group counseling and contents of program

Step 1 Intro & promise

Introduction to sand play group counseling. (Only to talk about “promise together” for group counseling every time and talk aloud)

Do not touch your friend’s work.

Listen to your friend’s work description positively.

Supports and speaks affirmative. (Do not swear)

Close your eyes, touch the sand, use the touch, and get in with the rising emotions. (The leader counselor will guide the subject of the day to a quiet voice)

Step 2 Create

After touching the sand a lot and making your own work quiet. (A client who wants to decorate freely and does not want to decorate is sitting quietly, touching the sand, or lying down)

Step 3 Share

Introduce your work to each group and share your feelings with your friends.

Step 4 To class

We promise to keep the story of the meeting during the consultation time as a secret between the members of the group. (Not being late, not being absent, not penalized)

Step 5 Clean up & record

After leaving the client, the counselor observes the client’s activities, records the work story, takes pictures, cleans up the work, and holds a counselor meeting with the school counselor.
