Invited Guest Speaker: Anna Adhemar, MSc, RPsych is a seasoned clinician with extensive experience and training in various modalities including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, positive psychology, family/systemic therapies, solution-focused therapy, couple therapies, hypnotherapy, somatic and mindfulness-based approaches, and trauma-informed practice. However, it is her passion and rich experiential journey as a clinician in the field of nature-based practices which brings her to talk with us. Anna was one of the first psychology students in the world to attempt to summarise past and present research on nature-based interventions from around the world, and from many different domains, when she completed her master’s thesis: Nature as Clinical Psychological Intervention, in 2008 at the University of Aarhus in Denmark. She is a pioneer in the integration of nature in clinical practice. Currently in her private practice, situated close to Mill Creek Ravine, Anna works with individual adults and couples integrating nature-based practices as a rich, meaningful and highly effective resource in her eclectic and holistic approach to psychotherapy.
