Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of group sandplay therapy programs on depression and anxiety in middle school students. For 48 students attending middle schools A, B, and C located in Cheonan, a group sandplay therapy program developed by Park (2020) was conducted twice a week, 45 minutes per session, eight times a week, and its effects were verified. The program effectiveness verification used the depression scale (BDI) and anxiety scale (BAI) developed by Beck as measurement tools, and the collected data was conducted using SPSS 18.0. These results suggest that group sand play therapy that promotes interpersonal relations can be an effective treatment technique to reduce depression and anxiety in middle school students.
