What’s the project?
This research project explores how nature-based therapy is experienced by children and young people (particularly those who identify as having difficult experiences). Most research so far has focused on what professionals, or adults’ think. The researcher on this project wants to change that by hearing directly from young people between 5 – 25 years old, about what therapy with nature is really like. Your insights could help shape how therapy looks and is accessed in the future!
