”Trees and soils, streams and skies, animals and insects are coparticipants – subjects in their own right, with their own precious needs and freedoms to preserve. If willing, they can be our partners in establishing a healing sense of belonging and homecoming in a world riven by displacement.”

What is Ecotherapy?
“The healing and growth nurtured by healthy interactions with the earth.” Howard Clinebell
“Ecotherapy as applied Ecopsychology, is the blending of two fertile fields; the earth and ways of healing. It employs many methods in disciplined and systematic attempts to reconnect the psyche (soul) and the body with the terrestrial sources of all healing (the earth)”
Linda Buzzell and Craig Chalquist.
“it is the boots on the ground practices and relational skill building that must occur in order to cultivate the paradigm shift that ecopsychology calls for from all of us.”
