TOWARDS AN ECOPSYCHOTHERAPY Mary-Jayne Rust, Jungian Analyst, Ecopsychologist

In this talk I will share some stories from the consulting room of deep love, attachment and loss in our relationships with the nonhuman world. As ecological and social crises worsen, many are experiencing a range of emotional responses including eco-grief or eco-anxiety, part of what some call ‘separation sickness’, a cultural trauma passed down through many generations. As we re-member our deep bonds with the whole earth community, and struggle to come to terms with ourselves as animals, we may find our way into an experience of living inside a conscious, sacred matrix. This way of being in the world is ancient, as Jung has often described. This shift in perspective can often be supported by taking therapy outdoors as well as through the dream world. These issues are central to the work of ecopsychotherapy.
