April 2026 Week 2

 As we continue building our focus on Sandtray Therapy x ADHD, this week is all about expanding your toolkit with practical, accessible resources.

These are tools you can use to deepen your understanding, support client insight, and guide early conversations around ADHD ~ everything is saved for you in here in the Sandtray Suite!
Here’s what we’ve pulled together for you:

1. ADHD Explainer Videos (see below)

• A clear, engaging breakdown of ADHD for adults
• A developmentally appropriate version for children

These are excellent for psychoeducation, helping clients (and caregivers) better understand how ADHD actually works.

2. Article: Benefits of Sandtray for ADHD
An insightful read exploring how sandtray naturally supports attention, regulation, and expression for ADHD clients ~ reinforcing why this modality is such a strong fit.

3. Free ADHD Screenings & Self-Assessments
A collection of accessible tools that can serve as a starting point for clients who may be questioning ADHD but aren’t sure where to begin.

• Adult ADHD Test from adda
• Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS)
• ADHD Test from Psychology Today
• ADHD in Children from Psychology Today
• ADHD Test from Mental Health America
• Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRSv1.1)

REMINDER ~ These are NOT diagnostic tools, but they can:

• Increase self-awareness
• Support initial conversations
• Help guide next steps toward formal evaluation if needed

We hope you enjoy exploring all these resources! 

Next week, we’ll begin translating this understanding directly into your sandtray work with practical strategies you can use in session.

Talk Soon,
