Ecotherapy is a fusion of ecology and psychology that explores the interrelationship between the human psyche and associated behaviour and the natural world. It recognises our relationship with the natural world as inherently healing and facilitates deeper connection with our environment and Mother Earth.

It is not surprising we seek Mother Earth when our personal lives seem unrewarding and empty. Responding to the calls of emotional hunger will lead us into all kinds of territory, not just to do with our family anthropology, but beyond into the nature of our consumerism, alienation from the wild and free, addictions to consumption and waste, and our powerlessness to change our world.

Getting started

The session format is slightly longer than normal therapy sessions and combine being inside and outside the therapy room. You will need to come prepared to venture outside and to work on the floor with natural paints and clays.

• If you have decided to explore therapy you are taking a positive step towards your own personal growth and self-empowerment.
• Entering into a therapeutic relationship with a professional practitioner is a sign of strength, not weakness.

If you would like to explore entering into a therapeutic relationship or would just like to know more about Ecotherapy or start with an Ecowalk, then contact GarriWiest@aol.com or telephone on 01296 660231 to make an enquiry.
