Description

Ecotherapy: A Field Guide presents an in-depth review of the field of ecotherapy, uncovering ambiguities in its understanding and description. The authors explore six key themes, drawing on critical analysis and traditional practices that predate modern interest in the subject. Through this exploration, a new metatheory for ecotherapy practice is proposed, aiming to bring cohesion to the field while honouring its heritage and supporting future development. However, the guide also highlights the need for careful consideration in how ecotherapy is practiced and described, as many terms currently used are culturally inappropriate and therapeutically counterproductive. By examining these complexities, Ecotherapy: A Field Guide offers a nuanced understanding of this growing therapy, essential for those seeking to develop or apply ecotherapeutic approaches.
