Drawing on the leading voices of international researchers and
practitioners, Outdoor Therapies provides readers with an overview
of practices for the helping professions. Sharing outdoor
approaches ranging from garden therapy to wilderness therapy and
from equine-assisted therapy to surf therapy, Harper and Dobud have
drawn common threads from therapeutic practices that integrate
connection with nature and experiential activity to redefine the
"person-in-environment" approach to human health and well-being.
Readers will learn about the benefits and advantages of helping
clients get the treatment, service, and care they need outside of
conventional, office-based therapies. Providing readers with a
range of approaches that can be utilized across a variety of
practice settings and populations, this book is essential reading
for students, practitioners, theorists, and researchers in
counseling, social work, youth work, occupational therapy, and
psychology.

Take your therapeutic practice with children, youth, and families
out into nature The number of children, youth, and families seeking
help for a wide range of mental health concerns is growing at an
alarming rate, and many struggle to thrive despite well-intentioned
interventions from skilled helpers. Unplugging from technology and
reconnecting with the web of life is a powerful antidote to the
highly technological and fast-paced realities of so many.
Nature-Based Therapy addresses this underlying disconnection
between humans and their ecological home, exploring theories and
therapeutic practices undertaken with children, youth, and
families, including: Developing sensory awareness of outer and
inner landscapes Navigating risk in play Case examples with a
diverse range of settings, intentions, and interventions.
Nature-Based Therapy is for counselors, therapists, youth and
social workers, educators, and parents working in educational and
therapeutic settings who want to take their practice beyond the
office walls and into the powerful terrain of the wild, partnering
with nature as a co-facilitator to create lasting change.
