A Practitioner's Guide to Working Outdoors with Children, Youth, and Families

Nature-Based Therapy

Will W. Dobud

"Outdoor Therapies draws on the voices of leading international researchers and practitioners to present this collection of outdoor therapeutic practice descriptions, introducing readers to a broad spectrum of possibilities for human service professions. Sharing outdoor approaches ranging from garden therapy to wilderness therapy and from equine-assisted therapy to surf therapy, Harper and Dobud have drawn common threads from therapeutic practices utilizing nature and experiential activities to redefine the person-in-environment approach to human health and wellbeing. As an introduction to these outdoor therapies, readers will become aware of the possibilities and advantages of helping clients get the treatment, service, and care they need, 'outside' of a conventional office-based therapy approach. Providing readers with a range of approaches which can be used across a variety of practice settings and populations, this book is essential reading for students, practitioners, theorists, and researchers in counseling, social work, youth work, occupational therapy, and psychology"--
