5 Minding language & defining terms Wilderness? Nature? Connecting with the Earth? What do these mean to the person you are talking to? Can you be sure? How do you know?

19 What is Ecopsychology? And why is it following me around?
20 Ecopsychology Studying mind, emotions and experience in the context of ecology and natural systems Exploring the synergy between the human psyche (i.e., mental health) and the health of natural systems A central assumption of ecopsychology is that our inner world and the outer world are intimately connected
21 Ecopsychology expands the context for counseling Ecological Social systems Family systems Inter-personal Intra-psychic
22 Ecotherapy Ecotherapy is an umbrella term for treatment modalities that include the natural world in relationships of mutual healing and growth, and as such is a form of applied ecopsychology. Buzzell, L. & Chalquist, C. (2009). Ecotherapy. Sierra Club Press
23 Ecotherapy s Twin Activities... (1) Utilizing the natural environment in counseling and therapy (2) Recognizing the impacts of environmental issues in the course of counseling and therapy
24 Add the Eco to therapy... Through direct connection with natural environments other species, natural objects, and nature-derived concepts and metaphors
25 Apply Therapy to Environmental Issues... Consciousness raising, stress reduction, emotional expression and resiliency, empowerment and confidence about lifestyle & identity
