This study explored how a female college student from a wife-battering family overcame her negative father complex and found her femininity through sandplay therapy. The client wanted to have good relationships with people as a result of the therapy. Thirty-one therapy sessions were held. The initial phase of therapy included 1-7 sessions, the intermediate phase included 8-27 sessions, and the final phase included 28-31 sessions. The client expressed her empty heart, frozen femininity and potential to work that was blocked in terms of her internal work as well as in her ability to have relationships in the first phase of therapy. During the middle phase of therapy she pursued her real and authentic self by meeting her shadow and acknowledging the different viewpoints of others. In the final phase of therapy she welcomed a new world with determination of what she would do after graduation in a real life. Through sandplay therapy in a free and protected space, the client overcame her negative father complex and found her natural femininity.
