Outdoor Therapeutics Specializing in nature-informed trauma treatment scientifically proven to benefit human wellness.

Outdoor Therapeutics is dedicated to improving mental wellness through clinical and wellness programs that realign connections between mind, body, and the natural world. We do this by integrating evidence-based therapy approaches with resources in nature that are scientifically proven to benefit human wellness, such as exposure to green space for nervous system stabilization. This dedication to re

turning humans to the wild results in comprehensive and unique offerings such as Nature-Integrated Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), a proven effective therapy for trauma, and therapeutic backpacking trips grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. Outdoor Therapeutics utilizes the natural world to the degree clients are comfortable, such as introducing plant care into office sessions, having a “walk and talk” session along the Monocacy River, or having an extended outdoor immersion focused on wildlife and the landscape as a source of metaphor, mirroring, and inspiration.

Outdoor Therapeutics Summer Potluck! Christine and Rose were with us in spirit. I often reflect on how lucky I have been to attract the caliber of people we have at this practice. Each person adds a special element to the workplace that makes it rich, interesting, and congenial. These people inspire me to be more thoughtful about how to guide the direction of our work and they humble me in the ways that allow me to step back and trust that they are leaders and experts in their own right. I wouldn’t want to weather to August heat with any other humans.
