About the event
During this one day workshop, we will explore what it means to work ecologically as a counsellor or psychotherapist. Challenging assumptions about who is able to do this kind of work, and where it should be done from, there will be space for participants to consider the different social, cultural and environmental factors which might impact their practice or their clients. Participants will take part in the workshop indoor and outdoors, in a space that is accessible to them. This can be a garden, yard, local park or nearby green space within a 5 minute distance of wherever participants are joining from. We will weave from the outdoors to indoor online spaces throughout the day. Course aims To provide an overview of the different approaches to eco-psychology To examine who can work ecologically, and from where To provide participants with an opportunity to experience how forging an alliance with the natural world might impact them in their role as therapist To examine different cultural, social, political and environmental impacts on working ecologically from the perspective of therapist and client Tutor: Rebecca Elston (she / her) MSc, CTA, UKCP Reg, is an indoor and outdoor psychotherapist with extensive experience integrating ecological thinking and working into psychotherapy practice.
