Webinar with Dr. Christine Norton, Texas State University
In a time of increasing stress and burnout, the natural world offers a powerful, evidence-based path to healing. Join us for an engaging webinar with Dr. Christine Norton, social work professor, outdoor therapy practitioner, and researcher, that explores how outdoor therapy interventions can enhance wellbeing, foster resilience, and support mental health across the continuum of care.
Participants will deepen their understanding of the therapeutic components of outdoor therapy, develop greater awareness of nature’s benefits for physical and emotional health, and gain practical tools to integrate nature-based mindfulness into their personal and professional practices. Through a blend of research, theory, and experiential learning, this session will offer strategies for promoting resilience, reducing vicarious trauma, and cultivating sustainable wellness for both clients and clinicians.
Whether you're a mental health professional, educator, or wellness practitioner, this webinar will also create space to build community and open doors for ongoing education and growth in the field of outdoor therapy.
