Nature-based therapy works wonders for mental health because it taps into the innate connection humans have with nature, offering a soothing and grounding environment that encourages introspection and healing.

Currently, we have In-Person, Nature-Based sessions in Burnaby, as well as in a private, natural space in South Surrey.
