A Certificate or Diploma in Eco-Psychotherapy, Systemic Thinking and Imagination in Mental Health

A Course for Psychotherapists in a Time of Ecological and Cultural Change

Saturday 4 February 2023 – Sunday 1 October 2023

A unique course for psychotherapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists with the aim of integrating nature, systems theory and the imagination into contemporary therapeutic practice by way of online lectures, in person and immersive experiential contact with nature. This will include experiential therapeutic work out-doors and camping as a group. The course is designed to have a strong transformative impact on participants by encouraging new perspectives, not only on our relationship to therapy itself but also its context within our current social and political institutions and the ecological systems of our planet.
