An Advanced Practice Intensive
Forest Therapy for Grief Support
Saturday, September 12th
10:00am — 4:00pm ET
ONline
Grief is a natural response to loss and significant change and an unavoidable part of the human experience. Yet many people move through life with few spaces where grief can be acknowledged, witnessed, and supported.
A Day of Learning, Reflection & Practice
Join us for an experiential day exploring how forest therapy can serve as a compassionate container for supporting grief.
Designed for forest therapy guides and nature connection practitioners, this advanced intensive will strengthen your capacity to be with your own grief while equipping you with the skills to confidently lead forest therapy experiences designed for individuals who are carrying loss.
By the End of This Intensive, You Will:
Increase your capacity to be with your own grief.
Gain an in-depth understanding of different types of grief and how to hold space when grief arises.
Be able to articulate the role forest therapy can play in grief support.
Learn how to thoughtfully incorporate ritual into grief-centered forest therapy experiences.
Develop the skills to structure and facilitate a grief-centered forest therapy offering.
