Question for my fellow mental health providers: During grad school, how much did you learn about outdoor environments and their impact on mental health and wellbeing? What do you wish you had learned?

I've recently begun the second phase of a doctoral program in Environmental Studies. My research is focused on ecological psychotherapy, with a goal of educating more mental health professionals and paraprofessionals on the often-overlooked relationship between people and the planet, especially in urban areas. Your input is vital as I delve deeper into what this should look like in the field. Thank you!
