Nature Therapy Group

Healing, growth, and connection—through nature

Our Nature Therapy Group offers evidence-based child and family therapy in an outdoor, nature-centered setting designed to help children feel calm, engaged, and open to growth.

Through guided therapeutic activities in natural environments, children build emotional regulation, resilience, confidence, and social connection. This group blends clinically proven methods such as play-based and experiential therapy with the grounding benefits of time in nature.

Nature therapy is ideal for children who thrive with movement, exploration, and hands-on learning—a supportive alternative to traditional indoor therapy while maintaining professional, structured care.

How nature therapy works

Structured, intentional, and child-centered

Each group session is led by a licensed therapist and intentionally planned to support therapeutic growth. Sessions may include:

  • Play-based therapeutic activities
  • Experiential and cooperative group exercises
  • Emotional regulation and coping skill development
  • Mindfulness and grounding practices

All activities are grounded in evidence-based therapeutic principles while allowing flexibility to meet children where they are in the moment.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

  • We support children, teens, and families across developmental stages. Play therapy is especially effective for younger children; teens and parents often participate in skill-building portions of sessions or separate coaching.

    If you are unsure about fit for your child’s age, reach out—we are happy to discuss options.

  • Yes, we offer limited after-school and weekend appointments, though they fill quickly.

    We also encourage families to consider daytime sessions—schools often allow excused absences for therapy, and children often return to class with improved focus, regulation, and academic engagement.

  • Session fees typically range from $65–$300 per session, depending on the type of service, setting (in-home, mobile office, nature-based, or telehealth), and your therapist’s credentials.

    We are happy to discuss rates for concierge packages, group therapy, and specialized formats during your discovery call.

  • We especially welcome clients drawn to outdoor, play-based, or family-centered care. Many families find us when looking for more than a traditional office-only experience.

    • Kids nature group therapy (including Campfire Kids & Teens)
