What is Nature Informed Therapy?
Nature Informed Therapy is a therapeutic approach that integrates the healing elements of nature into established, evidence-based treatment modalities. In many ways, Nature Informed Therapy is very similar to Ecotherapy. It seeks to improve awareness of the impact the disconnect from nature has on the mental health of human beings and improves mental health and well-being by restoring the healthy relationship with nature, self, and others.
"Nature heals,
nature is everywhere,
and nature is for everyone"

Our nature therapy retreats, groups, and trips in Towson, Monkton, and Owings Mills are not covered by insurance. To provide access to anyone in our community who desires to explore peace through nature, please consider donating to our Nature Scholarship Fund.
Walking for 12 minutes is better than 12 hours of a TV show or desktop game. Nature deprivation is harmful, so go out and connect with nature. Nature offers a natural solution to depression, anxiety, and other mental health problems.

Unplug And Connect With Nature
Unplug from technology and devote more time to your self-awareness and mindfulness with our Nature-based therapy. By taking a walk, going on a hiking adventure, or spending time in a lush green space, you are reducing your sympathetic nervous system's stress response and helping your autonomic system regain balance.
We believe in the universal benefit of cultivating a healing reconnection with the natural world. To apply for a scholarship to any of our programs, please access the scholarship application by clicking the icon.
