Why Ecotherapy

Ecotherapy is a therapeutic approach that involves engaging with nature to improve mental and physical well-being. It’s based on the idea that spending time in natural environments and connecting with the natural world can have profound benefits for emotional and psychological health as well as the health of the planet.

It can help with

Connection

Ecotherapy emphasizes our connection to all living things, which can create a sense of belonging.
This interconnectedness encourages a sense of community not only for our place in the ecosystem but with fellow humans and the more than human which can reduce feelings of isolation.

Mental Wellbeing

Research shows that ecotherapy can help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.
Time spent in nature can elevate mood, improve focus, and promote a sense of calm.

Gratitude

Encourages mindfulness, where individuals consciously observe their surroundings—the textures of leaves, the sounds of birds, the feeling of sunlight. This mindful presence can cultivate a sense of wonder and gratitude for nature's beauty.

Community and Environmental Responsibility

Ecotherapy involves building a deeper awareness of our responsibility toward the environment.
By fostering a respectful relationship with nature, ecotherapy also encourages a sense of community and stewardship of the earth.

Reflection and Perspective

Spending time in nature allows for introspection.
This can help people shift their perspective, often leading to a greater appreciation for the positive aspects of their lives

Physical Health

There are a wealth of health benefits including enhanced vitality, improved immunity, reduced blood pressure, better sleep quality and reduced inflammation

Testimonials

''During the workshop I was listening, looking and taking in the surroundings, and I felt truly present. I truly felt what it was to with nature. Just sitting there, just being.''

Dee Alexandrou

Nature Connection Facilitator

Our Mission is to build genuine community and belonging with every individual we work with.

Not only is it important for our own health and wellbeing but it positively impacts the health and wellbeing of our communities and the natural world. We care deeply about guiding people to move from the disconnection of the modern world to deep belonging and reciprocity within the web of all things

Dee is an Ecotherapist and nature connection facilitator, dedicated to helping people move from disconnection to a deeper alignment with the natural world and with community. She has been working with plants and herbal medicine since 2017 but her background for 15 years was in support work for SEN children and adults. Since 2022, Dee has been studying Ecotherapy and nature-based facilitation with the Natural Academy, and is currently advancing her skills through their accredited ecopsychology training program.

Drawing from this lived experience, it is her mission to help fellow humans find a pathway out of feeling lost, stuck, or isolated and into a place of restoration and belonging—something so many of us long for in the modern world.
