My research is based on Nature and Mental Health. I am interested in Ecopsychology, Ecotherapy and Nature based therapeutic practices. As a fully qualified counsellor and life coach, I am passionate about mental health and wellbeing. My aim as a research PhD student is to develop a grounded theory as to how nature may impact mental health. I am also interested in whether or not nature therapies may be considered as safe and accessible therapeutic and medical practices and as possible interventions. Other areas of interest are educational reform, children's mental health, gender inequality and social justice.
