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 returning 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.

Your nervous system doesn’t need perfect safety to start calming down. Your body will accept relative safety, the experience of being safe *enough*. Safe enough can be found in a deep breath, in a neutral sensation in your elbow, in receiving a text form someone who cares, or taking a pause in your car. Look for small pockets of safety and relish it. They matter more than you think.

Humans learn to push down feelings, avoid bodily sensations, and disconnect from their lived experience. When this happens, experiences that haven’t had space to unfold can linger in the body and show up as pain or distress. By gently learning to stay with sensations, allow emotions to move through us, and let the body have its own experience, we begin to build trust in ourselves. As our capacity for self-tolerance grows, many mental health challenges can soften and begin to heal.

Yes you can experience nature-informed therapy through telehealth.

NIT can look like.. nature-based meditative activities for emotional regulation, doing horticultural therapy activities in front of the computer using your own houseplants or garden seedlings, debriefing with your NIT therapist nature experiences you had outside of session, the use of pets during session for animal assisted therapy, logging into session from your back yard. Don’t let screen time get in the way of the benefits of nature. Ask your NIT therapist how to bring the natural world into your telehealth appointment.

We wanted to share our enthusiasm for the somatic experiencing support group we’re facilitating this month. It matters to us that our clients and community neighbors understand that there symptoms are not random and that there is a logic to the communications our bodies offer. Returning group members back to their bodies to hear these important messages is one of the most important gifts we can give. The engagement of group members this week shows us our group offerings have impact.

Martin Luther King Jr. had several powerful quotes about nature, focusing on the interconnectedness of all life, environmental justice as a civil rights issue, and the intrinsic value of the natural world, famously saying, “For in the true nature of things, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver” and linking human destiny to the planet’s well-being.
