The therapeutic work I offer is based on nature connection. I support the idea that the natural world and the relationship you make with it is fundamental to your wellbeing. Below I have listed what I can provide.

Outdoor therapy:
Counselling: This can be an outside ‘Walk and talk’ session. I also offer counselling sessions where the natural world is encompassed in the session by the use of creative activity and metaphor.
Supervision: In an outdoor setting for counsellors and other professionals working in any setting. There is an option to engage with the landscape or just to feel refreshed and supported by the natural setting.

Shinrin-Yoku
Is a nature connection practice that originated in Japan. It translates as ‘Forest bathing’ (no water involved). It is about spending time in nature, usually in the forest but it doesn’t have to be. Slowing down, relaxing, and tuning your senses into the natural world around you.

Outdoor wellbeing groups
I can facilitate specific groups that are open ended or time limited. These can be focused purely on nature connection and relaxation, or more specific issues.
