An exciting offering from one of our local MSW field sites: Outdoor Adventure Therapy Services!
Our very own Assistant Professor Rachel Holman, MS, LMSW, CAADC, CHAIS, ADS & MSW Student Grace Rieger, BS, 500 HR CYT, are co-facilitating a 6-week LGBTQIA+ affirming ecotherapy group. The group will meet weekly on Thursdays from 2:30–4:30 pm, starting September 17th.
Here is a bit about Rooted in Belonging:
Group Overview:
Do you find yourself longing for a version of your home that no longer exists? Has your sense of belonging to your identity, culture, or natural environment shifted over the past years? Our 6-week “Rooted in Wellbeing” group seeks to explore how nature integration, q***r community building, & a connection to our more-than-human kin can empower our sense of belonging in an ever-changing world. As we sit with the degradation of human rights & environmental wellbeing, we want to challenge the narrative that we remain without power. Alternatively, we will call upon you to examine how you are navigating unprecedented political, cultural, and environmental stress and how WE can find ways to lean into community, embodiment, and resilience.
What to Expect:
A six-week closed psychoeducational group designed to support LGBTQIA+ folks navigating ecological stress. This space will be a small, intimate setting that allows for voices to be heard and shared. Each week we will meet at a different outdoor location around Marquette. Expect routine and novel weekly experiences that integrate interpersonal & intrapersonal reflection and processing.
