Rewild Your Mental Health: Ecofeminist Therapy and Maternal Mental Wellness

Learn about nature therapy and how it can help support your mental health and wellness as a mother. I share about my orientation as an ecofeminist therapist and a bit about how it transforms the conventional psychological approach to maternal mental wellness. 

In this episode, I share:

The main mental health assumptions of ecopsychology and eco therapy (applied ecopsychology)How a human-centered "anthropocentric"mindset is rooted in values of control and dominationHow ecotherapy transforms our approach to mental health and wellnessWhat it means to approach developmental challenges of mothering from a wellness and strength-based model rather than a medical modelWhy we have to consider personal, social, cultural, and enviornmental dimensions of mental wellnessWhat I mean when I say mental health is both personal and planetary (Roszak)How I see my mothering clients resonate with this approach: including ecogrief, alienation from modern mothering consumption, and the importance of spirituality The first stage of ecotherapy, or "upwork" (Clineball)Why your therapist's theoretical orientation is important
