The Ecotherapist

16/07/2026

It has been a while since I have shared about the practice and updated my working blurb... so here is an updated one.

As an Ecotherapist, I provide trauma-informed, neuro-affirming ecotherapy for children, young people and adults. Nature offers a gentle space where there is no pressure to explain, perform or mask, only an opportunity to slow down, feel safe and reconnect with yourself.

Many of the people I support are living with the effects of trauma, anxiety, ADHD, autism, OCD, burnout or emotional overwhelm. Through a compassionate blend of therapeutic support and connection with the natural world, sessions help regulate the nervous system, build a sense of safety and create space for healing. Whether through walking, mindful connection with nature, creative activities, sensory exploration or simply being present outdoors, each session is tailored to the individual and honours their unique way of experiencing the world.

Healing is not about fixing who you are. It is about gently uncovering the parts of yourself that have always been there beneath survival, creating opportunities to rediscover trust, self-compassion, resilience and a deeper connection with both yourself and the natural world.

Good Morning all, sharing a treat from last night's Aurora. The earth's magnetic atmosphere is incredible and the colours that were visible last night were vibrant.

I am back to the outside office today, but wanted to share how this looks when weather warnings are in place. Wind speeds above 40mph keep me out of the woods, the wind speeds above 50mph keep me pretty much inside or I cancel depending on the location and safety. Today, will be spending 10 mins on the field to provide movement to our body and then time inside. I respect the weather and holds the power.

Happy Tuesday 💚💚

Every Monday I start the day with a walk or yoga. For the past few weeks it has been yoga, but I ensure I go for a lunch time walk due to being office based Mondays. My practice then includes my Oracle cards, I pick one for myself, journal and then 3 to share with you all. However, this morning's card for myself felt it was something we all needed to hear on a Monday morning in the middle of January. A gentle reminder that we are enough as who we are - even if there are people surrounding you that think otherwise.... that is them not you. Love from within 💚💚💚

Would like to wish you all a very restful Christmas and New Year.

I am taking some time this Christmas to spend with my loved ones and will respond to all emails and messages Monday 5th January.

A reminder to be kind and gentle to yourself in a time that is full of demands and expectations, you are still able to say no if it does not feel right.

Here's to a change for 2026.

Lots of Love 💚💚💚

🌿 A Thought From Today’s Journey 🌿

On my way to work this morning the usual route was blocked—trees down, roads flooded.
So I turned around, took another road, and eventually found my way.

It reminded me how much this mirrors life.

Sometimes the path we planned is suddenly closed.
The way forward feels blocked, messy, overwhelming.
We can feel stuck—like there is no route ahead.

But just because the familiar road isn’t clear…
doesn’t mean there isn’t another way through.

Ecotherapy teaches us to see beyond the obvious path—to step back, breathe, notice what else is available. Nature never stops offering alternatives: a plant grows around a stone, a stream creates a new channel, roots move toward light.

💚 Sometimes we have to think wider.
💚 Sometimes we take the slower road.
💚 Sometimes the detour becomes the path we actually needed.

Today reminded me:
There is always another way forward.
Even if it is unfamiliar, slower or unexpected—
it is still movement, still progress, still possibility.

You’re not stuck.
You’re simply finding a new route.

🌿✨

When your final session of the day is on the beach and in the dark, it provides so much more. Your senses are heightened, it takes you out of your head and into your body - an incredible process and one we do not do enough. I love a session in the dark and it changes the therapeutic relationship to one of admiration 💚💚
