Abstract	A sandtray group experience is a creative intervention that counselors may want to incorporate into their work with adolescents. This qualitative inquiry explored the experiences of adolescent females who participated in a sandtray group while attending an alternative school. The researchers identified five themes that emerged from the data: (a) self-expression, (b) development of insight, (c) growth opportunities, (d) hope, and (e) group dynamics. Implications for group workers and recommendations for future research are discussed. (As Provided).
