Abstract
Ecopsychology is based on the concept that our planetary problems develop from dysfunctional relationships within our personal and interpersonal social worlds and with nature. This article explores the development of a nature-based intervention where the forest is understood as a therapeutic partner. Readers are offered strategies for application within therapeutic practice that take account of, and relate to, nature. The gap between psychotherapy and ecopsychology is bridged by exploring a program utilizing forest bathing, Indigenous ways of knowing, and the Tree of Life narrative tool. By highlighting the natural elements from these approaches an innovative therapeutic experience is explored.
