eco therapy sessions
Blending eco therapy and creative practice, I work with both individuals and groups, privately and within the community.
During the sessions, I guide gentle exploration, attuning to nature. This attuning can help us to feel a deeper sense of belonging to the places we live, connecting with layers of place; the soil, the plants, the people, the trees and other beings.
I have delivered eco therapy walks and workshops to a variety of organisations including Cyrenians, Dovelight Wellbeing Edinburgh, Glasgow Woman’s Aid and Pilton Community Health Project, Edinburgh.
Sessions often follow a sequence of activity including; walking, deep listening, sensory engagement and creative response.

eco therapy is the practice of spending focused time in connection with nature for our mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing. It is the beautiful act of noticing what is here for us; the blue of the sky, the plants sprouting through tarmac, the earthy smell of soil, the crunch of leaves underfoot are all sensory moments and invitations. The ‘hello I am here’ moments.
eco therapy can shift our focus to the unfolding cycles of nature, processing decay - endings and renewal - beginnings. So often is the case, that when we connect with what is outside of ourselves, we circle back and connect with our internal selves and what is happening in there.
