Experience the Healing Power of Nature with Ecotherapy
Immerse yourself in nature with ecotherapy in the San Fransisco Bay Area and ease your mind, body, and soul. Breathe the fresh air and feel the sun on your face while surrounded by the stillness of the forest.
Feel safe, peaceful, and grounded.
You live in a fast-paced culture. It wants you to go, go, go until you can’t go anymore. Ecotherapy allows you to slow down, connect with the natural world, and deeply connect with yourself.
What is Ecotherapy/ecopsychology?
This holistic, emerging field within the psychology world is based on the idea that spending time in nature positively impacts your mental and physical health. Ecotherapy, also called nature therapy, can take place in any outdoor setting, whether in a local park, hiking through the woods, or gardening.
Are You Asking Yourself, “Is Ecotherapy Right for Me?”
Everyone has a strong connection to nature. That means everyone can benefit from nature therapy. To see if ecotherapy is right for you, answer the following questions:
Do you find yourself in your garden or searching for a place to hike when you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or anxious?
Do you saturate yourself with unrealistic expectations of yourself, always looking for perfection as you fall into the comparison trap?
Do you lack time to rest and recharge?
Do you feel like all of your anxiety, stress, and overwhelm are too much for you to carry?
If you answered “yes” to any of the above, ecotherapy is right for you.
What to Expect from Ecotherapy With Me in Oakland, California
You can absolutely benefit from time in nature on your own. But as a trained ecotherapist in the San Francisco Bay area, I can guide you through your mental health struggles while helping you get in tune with the world around you. Nature therapy is a wonderful alternative to sitting in my office or in front of a computer screen.
My ecotherapy sessions in Oakland, California, take place in two beautiful natural surroundings:
Joaquin Miller Park
Redwood Regional Park
Whether we find a cozy spot to sit underneath a majestic redwood tree or slowly walk while soaking in all the surrounding beauty, I, your ecotherapist, welcome you as you are. And I would be honored to explore this path with you.
