Eco-Art Therapy combines ecopsychology and traditional art-therapy.
Ecopsychology studies and rebuilds relationships between human beings and our natural world.
Eco-art practices tap into our sensory, innate creativity, flowing through our body.
A guided eco-art process provides an opportunity for non-verbal expression, relaxation, wise counsel, transformation and healing as we mindfully relate with natures gifts and express ourselves creatively.
Come play!
Workshops are conducted with nature and tailored to the intent of individual or group.
No art experience is needed, in fact it can be advantageous to have no experience or formal art training which may block our creativity with reasoning and logic.
You are invited to participate in current online self-guided eco-art practices and view the galleries
Collaborations are welcomed with other artists, art-therapists, and creatives.

"As soon as I started studying Eco-Art, I noticed different perspectives and creative expression offer methods of seeing and healing. Over the weeks I realized that with the tailored exercises I could reach greater depth to see situations, both current and lifelong, with a self-compassionate and non-judgmental, more universal mindful perspective to aid my healing processes." - Eco-Art student reflection (2017)
"I am a recent student of Eco Art Therapy (2018-19) and have had the great fortune to be mentored by Deb during the course. I love working with Deb who has a wealth of experience and expertise. She facilitates Ecopsychology workshops with an inspiring deep listening and consciousness. I am deeply honoured to be working together with Deb on some projects and co-facilitating with her and I am continually learning on this journey. Thank you so much Deb for your part in this. I feel deep respect, love, reconnecting and remembering our connection with nature and the Earth our home with all its wisdom is vital for us all." - Karen Hopkins, artist (August, 2019)
The Book Eco-Art Therapy by Dr Theresa Sweeney ...
"... Dr. Sweeney blends art therapy with ecotherapy in a unique learning tool which gives you the means to anchor that feel-good aliveness so it doesn't fade when you return indoors. The engaging and practical Eco-Art activities she presents in this manual use art as a bridge between your innate, but suppressed natural intelligence and your conscious awareness. These simple, but powerful, paradigm-shifting exercises help you surface your inherited wisdom into your psyche so you can think with it 24/7, making your time spent in Nature, not only momentarily cathartic, but lasting. Your time has come to reclaim the joys of your birthright. Reconnect with the wild and join the great awakening!"
