OverviewEcotherapy: A Field Guide is a refreshing overview of an emerging discipline which is keenly aware of cultural issues. Many of the terms currently being used to describe ecotherapy are culturally inappropriate and therapeutically counterproductive. This book ensures that great care is taken to describe the work in a way that privileges the traditions that predate the modern interest in this subject, using a methodology informed by critical theory and deep ecology. With contributions from Ben Classen, Dion Enari, Rebecca Freeth, Rupert Hutchinson, Hayley Marshall, Jacoba Matapo, Gina O'Neill and Bianca Stawiarski.

The research question is well formulated, the search strategy is systematic and the discussion section provides good examples of critical thinking. Because the authors explain their thinking, research students will find it a useful guide when writing their own literature reviews. [...] To clear the confusion, the authors offer a new paradigm for understanding ecotherapy that varies according to the practitioner's view of therapy and nature. Truly ecological therapists, they argue, go beyond the therapeutic dyad and see 'therapeutic potential' in our complex web of relationships with the plant. [...] Psychotherapists and counsellors seeking a more ecological way of working that takes account of our relationship with the planet as well as each other will find this book stimulating.' -- John Marsden, MBACP (Snr Accred), senior lecturer in counselling and psychotherapy, BACP, Therapy Today, April 2024, 35:3 Author InformationDavid Key has designed and delivered outdoor programmes for psychological wellbeing and sustainability to a wide diversity of organisations and individuals for nearly 30 years.
