The SGV Ecotherapy Collective is forming to connect, support, and co-create wellness and equitable, reciprocal relationship with other than human nature. It’s starting as a project of The Place Within, a community mental health center in Monrovia, CA, and may grow, move, and change as the community sees fit. Participation is open to practitioners of wellness that identify as an Ecotherapy and not limited to mental or behavioral health.
Any fees established and collected under this program will be directly related to the activities or in support of the SGV Ecotherapy Collective so that it does not create extra burden for The Place Within which is a non-profit organization on a limited budget. Separate donations to The Place Within are graciously welcomed, but not a requirement for participation in the Collective.
Initial activities are to offer intentional times and spaces to gather on-line or in-person to share resources, learn from one another, and build relationships. Some of these proposed activities include meet-ups, discussion groups, finding ways of sharing information, talking circles, book reviews and discussion, presentations from local Ecotherapy programs and professionals.
