Nature Therapy is good for the mind, body and soul!​

​

• Nature therapy is based on the concept of using nature to help us heal, both mentally and physically.

• Nature can mean different things to different people; it can be a walk in a city park, venturing into the wilderness, or participating in a guided imagery meditation online.

• I will assess your eco-identity and comfort level to integrate the most useful tools.

• Nature is a powerful healer, from trees releasing their natural essential oils, to beneficial microorganisms in the soil, the 3 top stress relieving sounds are Water, Wind and Birds.

• Nature has been scientifically proven to reduce cortisol (stress hormone), provide mental clarity, and brain function decrease anxiety, depression and stress and strengthen your immune system.

• It has also been shown as an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and substance use recovery.

 

 

I provide a step down from a therapeutic model for those in recovery to continue your healing.
