The paradigm of ecotherapy posits that personal health and healing are directly related to the health of the natural environment. Based on ideas in ecopsychology that involve the integration of psychology and ecology, ecotherapy is the application of ecopsychology to therapeutic practice. Described in this article are the paradigm of ecotherapy, the experiences of students taking a course in ecotherapy, and its implications for nature, healing, and therapeutic practice. This experience would not have been possible without the openness, trust, and cooperation of our amazing graduate students and our visiting elder. Many thanks to the following persons: Visiting Elder: Jack S. Weller, Founding Director of the Expressive Arts Therapy Program at the California Institute of Integral Studies Ecotherapy Graduate Students: Rachel Biron, Heather Cameron, Mike Diettrich-Chastain, Robin Falkner, Jennifer Froyd, Jennifer Johnson, Melia Kizer, Betsy Naylor, Lindsey Smith, Debbie Tallarico.
