Hiraeth ‘Wilderness Therapy’ is the intentional use of a wilderness environment and adventure experience to promote human development. Ancient ecological narratives of interconnected life contain the most natural of therapeutic experiences. Survival and inter-personal / ecological reliance lead to enriching, assimilating and integrating experiences.
Qualified Hiraeth therapists and outdoor professionals lead an expedition into the wild. The whole experience is marked by: highly specialised assessments; continued focus upon client processes, dynamics and therapeutic outcomes; supportive ‘here and now’ therapeutic interventions and; sophisticated ‘action-research’ evaluations.
Hiraeth can offer Wilderness Therapy packages throughout the UK and works with partner organisations to offer quality wilderness / cultural therapeutic experiences around the world.
