Description

Holding the Hope explores the frameworks and ways of working that talking therapists have devised to hold hope and build agency in the face of catastrophic climate change. Contributors from diverse backgrounds and professional disciplines discuss how to navigate our inter-relationships with the natural world, indigenous practices, and more.

This thought-provoking book offers honest and moving insights into managing emotions and responses to climate change, including fear, anger, denial, grief, helplessness, and hopelessness. It provides practical guidance on facing reality with children and young people, and finding ways to continue practising at the edge of despair.

With its sobering yet hopeful tone, this book is a valuable resource for talking therapists, counsellors, psychotherapists, coaches, and psychologists seeking to support their clients and communities in these challenging times.
