In 2015, Rebekah was exposed to Ecotherapy by the late Dr Martin Jordan, and discovered the incredible impact that therapy in natural spaces can have upon the client, in particular clients who are traumatised.

 

As a Mindful Meditation Instructor, Rebekah had historically taken clients out into parks and open spaces to benefit from reconnecting with nature, whether this was actively engaging with aspects of nature or just be simply sitting peacefully in natural surroundings.

 

As her therapeutic practice has expanded, Rebekah has sought to bring more of the outside into the therapeutic space, and to consider clients on an individual basis in relation to taking sessions outside where this has been appropriate. 

​

 

Rebekah continues a very strong interest in Ecotherapy, in particular with first responders. She is currently writing a PhD thesis connected to the Ecotherapy movement, in relation to Psychodynamic therapy with clients presenting with trauma symptoms and regularly works with clients in the outdoor settings.
