Climate change & psychotherapy: Perspectives from ecopsychology and the Work That Reconnects

Climate change & psychotherapy: Perspectives from ecopsychology and the Work That Reconnects
Sunday, January 28th    10 am to 1 pm     $35


Living in the era of climate change brings numerous psychological and emotional impacts. Together we will draw from ecopsychology and the Work That Reconnects to better understand our inner responses to climate change and the role that psychology and therapy can play in addressing the current global crises. We will do this through a mix of dialogue, self-reflection, and experiential exercises.

This workshop will also explore the intersection of social and environmental justice issues, and allow participants to reflect on their own relationships with nature and how this is related to their social locations. Participants will take away ideas and tools for incorporating ecotherapy techniques into their practice in order to foster mental well-being, enhance feelings of connectedness to nature, and support clients in actively engaging with the broader web of life.

Laura Hirsh is a clinical psychologist with a private practice in Seattle. She specializes in ecopsychology and working with the LGBTQ community. Laura finds inspiration and empowerment in the radical roots of the gestalt therapy tradition, as she continues to find ways to integrate contemporary gestalt therapy with social justice and mindfulness-based perspectives. Laura has completed advanced training in Buddhist Psychology and Gestalt Therapy at the Gestalt Therapy Training Center-Northwest. Laura is also passionate about examining the psychological and societal impacts of human disconnection from the natural world. Joanna Macy’s approach to honoring our pain for the world — known as the Work That Reconnects — has been a guiding force in her life for over a decade.
