Bio
I am a co-founder of EcoWisdom, a social enterprise that offers nature-based mindfulness programs that are inclusive of people living with disability, chronic illness or challenges associated with aging. We also train a small number of EcoWisdom Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guides to facilitate accessible and inclusive mindful nature connection programs. Our unique EcoWisdom program model has been evaluated to have significant impact on social, emotional, and physical wellbeing and research on impact has been submitted for peer-reviewed publication.
I live with a chronic illness disability myself and have direct experience with chronic pain and severe mobility impairment. For the past 3 years I have lived among trees, moose, and wolves in an off-grid cabin on the EcoWisdom Forest Preserve. I am trained as a spiritual director as well as a nature & forest therapy guide with a PhD in human development and applied psychology. In the past I have worked as a professor of Disability Studies and health researcher.
Nature print art, nature photography, and creative writing are activities I enjoy in addition to facilitating programs that foster compassionate care to nurture oneself, others within community, and the earth.
