Nature Informed Therapy
Nature informed therapy is a form of counseling that integrates the healing properties of the natural world into mental health treatment.
Many years of research have shown overwhelming support for the health benefits of spending time in the natural world.
If you'd like to experience nature informed therapy, we would schedule a session at a local park or hiking trail. We can do the session sitting at a park bench or picnic table, or walking and talking. I offer individual AND group therapy options for Nature Informed Therapy.

Women's Group
There is a lot of pressure put on women these days... a lot of expectations, demands... a lot of laws and judgements on us and on our bodies... a lot of injustices, inequalities, biases, sexism, oppression... It makes sense to feel angry, sad, overwhelmed, frustrated, or lost!
This group will be a space to process life situations, pressures, events, current political and cultural trauma; to vent, receive and provide support; and to discuss resources/action plans, as desired by group members. We will work on self-love, adapting expectations, and creating fulfilling lives. At the end of each session, we will take time to celebrate our womanhood and our feminine power.

Deepening Connection and Intimacy
*New group pending* This group aims to be in-person, in a nature-space. It includes a combination of therapy and methods inspired by partner-yoga. We will work on building trusting communication, practice communicating our needs and making requests, practice expressing consent and saying 'no'. Partners will then be led through a series of partner-yoga-inspired activities that progressively increase non-sexual intimate touch and connection, continuing to express consent or say 'no' as each partner feels comfortable. Partnerships can include: couples, spouses, friendships, polycules, or other.
Email me at wellness@jennsowers.com to get you and your partner(s) on the waitlist.
