Explore Eco-Therapy in Hamilton & Burlington

This offering aims to tap into a holistic approach to therapeutic care, direct towards traditional ecological knowledge, and to make steps towards decolonizing therapy.  Eco Therapy is a unique offering that re-connects clients to the natural world, allowing therapeutic themes to be experimented within new contexts.  Clients are able to return into their  bodies through movement, notice internal changes as the environment shifts around them, and develop powerful skills taught by the most unexpected teachers. 

Nature offers a multitude of teachings.  From the power of slowness, to resilience, to community impact.  Accessing these teachings has developed powerful transferable skills such as pausing to expand awareness; cultivating curiosity, creativity, and intuition; supporting stress management and nervous system regulation; and developing more collaborative and humbling perspective taking.
