About Natural Academy

Natural Academy is a not for profit community interest company, whose mission is to help people and nature recover and flourish together. We do this through training practitioners who facilitate the health, healing and recovery of people and within the journey of this, support our return to a deepening connectedness to the natural world. We have a vision of an integrated eco centric, one health model. From this, our approaches in applied ecopsychology, emerge to support individuals, communities and the rest of the natural world around us. We know this is a time where coming back to our own nature and the natural world around us is paramount. By training professional, nature based practitioners, and by guiding and supporting individuals and organisations, we seek to create competent and confident professionals in nature based approaches to health, healing and deeper purpose. We know that they can then help many, many others engage once again with the resources of their natural self and their connectedness to nature. To facilitate this we have created a career and vocational pathway for individuals who want to explore how they can start or deepen their calling to work in Nature, Health and Wellbeing, Ecotherapy and Eco Depth Practice. Our students have taken the learning from our courses and successfully set up their own practices across the country or created careers in organisations that are moving to more nature-based approaches to working with people. We have also created NatureWell as a way of training and supporting organisations and teams to develop professional nature based services often in Urban environments, near hospitals, in community gardens working with many different people across the country.
