As the realities of climate change grow more urgent, many clients are experiencing eco-anxiety, climate grief, and existential distress that can deeply impact their mental health. This training will provide you with a comprehensive framework for understanding and addressing the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of climate-related distress. Together, we will explore how to differentiate eco-anxiety from clinical anxiety, recognize common manifestations of climate grief, and learn therapeutic approaches that validate, contextualize, and help clients transform their distress into meaningful engagement.
This training combines theory, practical tools, and experiential exercises to build confidence in supporting clients facing climate-related emotions. Through case examples and reflective practices, you will develop strategies for helping clients move from overwhelm to agency, integrate eco-emotions into a broader healing process, and cultivate resilience, community connection, and hope even in the face of environmental uncertainty.
This training is ideal for clinicians, counselors, marriage and family therapists, and other helping professionals seeking to better understand and treat clients struggling with climate-related emotional distress. No prior experience with climate-focused therapy required.
OBJECTIVES:

Identify the emotional and psychological manifestations of eco-anxiety and climate grief and their impact on client well-being.
Describe therapeutic frameworks and interventions to help clients process and manage climate-related distress.
Implement strategies that foster resilience, empowerment, and emotional regulation in clients coping with environmental concerns.
