The growing number of notifications regarding children and adolescents in situations of violence indicates the importance of looking at psychology in this context, pointing out the need to think about how it is possible to receive and intervene with this public. Thus, the present study starts from the idea of trauma to indicate the psychosomatic manifestations resulting from the experience of the individual who has experienced violence. The review of the literature indicates the use of Behavioral Cognitive Therapy (CBT) as the way with the most scientific evidence to intervene in the case of traumatized adolescents, considering also the lack of research in this area with the psychodynamic approaches. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of Sandplay in the treatment of sexual abuse trauma in adolescents. From the investigation of the effectiveness of the instrument, we sought to discuss the traumatic experiences considering the theoretical and technical concepts of Sandplay, as well as to verify the diagnostic parameters and prognosis of the initial scenario. The instruments used were: Screen for Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms (SPTSS) and specific Sandplay materials, two sandboxes and a kit with miniatures that reproduced the daily life of a person. This was a single case study conducted in twelve sessions, starting from a pre-experimental measure to verify the effectiveness of Sandplay, defined as an expressive method originating in analytical psychology for the treatment of sexual abuse trauma in an adolescent. The results suggested a decrease in the traumatic symptomatology and, using the Jungian clinical method, in other words, the symbolic amplification of the Sandplay scenarios, it was possible to verify the psychodynamics of the traumatized adolescent, as well as to observe the breakdown of the defenses and the elaborations during the sessions. In this way, it was necessary to expand the study with a larger number of participants, to broaden the framework for the application of Sandplay in order to resize the technique considering its applicability in socio-institutional and public contexts.
