What is Ecotherapy?

Ecotherapy, also known as nature-based therapy or green care, is a holistic, evidence-based approach to improving mental, physical, and emotional well-being through connection with nature. It combines psychological principles, mindfulness, and outdoor activities to help individuals restore balance, reduce stress, and foster personal growth.

At Commence CIC, our ecotherapy model is rooted in mindfulness, energy balance, and nature connection, encouraging participants to explore how time in natural settings supports healing, builds resilience, and strengthens community bonds. Through guided outdoor experiences, we empower people to reconnect with themselves, others, and the environment.
