KST ASSOCIATES offers both a concise introduction to the theoretical foundations of family sculpturing, and intensive training in applying the Kvebaek Sculpture Technique, a form of symbolic family sculpture, in assessment and treatment of relationship issues. The KST techniques engage individuals’ visual, tactile and kinesthetic senses to share their own experience and to communicate more effectively with others.

Comment from a social work professor and clinical supervisor:
“I am very impressed by the practical application of sculpting afforded through the use of the Kvebaek family sculpting tools. You offered me, in the short time we were able to talk, a useful and informative presentation regarding the clinical and theoretical foundations of this therapeutic technique. I think it would be an invaluable tool for use in assessment and family therapy. It practicalizes family sculpting for clinicians –-and would be easily accessible for newer clinicians.”
