The Nature-Based Therapy Certificate teaches how to foster a professional relationship with Nature to help improve your overall professional experience. The class will serve as an intro to concepts, perspectives, skills, and techniques that will help you to build your own authentic professional relationship with Nature. The class is rooted in an experiential outdoor learning approach and offers numerous opportunities to engage hands on with the material beyond talking/conceptualizing.

 Classes will be offered at least twice a year as a 3-day intensive (18 CE hours) and be hosted outside in a park near Portland, OR to support an immersive learning environment. We are also able to tailor this class to an already established group, and we are able to travel to you to teach this 3-day intensive!

Further details, including agenda, is listed below!

 

“Nature Based Therapy has helped me not experience burnout & provide a unique lens to the therapeutic process as I can collaborate with Nature for support as my co-therapist. Nature-based therapy recognizes the interconnectedness of individuals with their environment, emphasizing the importance of systems theory and not identifying an individual as a problem.”

Agenda of the Nature-Based Therapy Certificate class is below, and different than our Virtual Workbook Classes.

 

“Having Nature as a co-therapist has helped me to solidify my identity as a systems based therapist because nature is inherently systemic. Nature Based Therapy has so much possibility and really allows a client to work at their own pace and practice acknowledging their own needs.”
