Psychosocial Interventions Situated Within the Natural Environment with Young People Who Have Experienced Trauma: A Scoping Review

Abstract: The natural environment is increasingly used in therapeutic psychosocial interventions for young people who have experienced trauma. However, as the research in this area has yet to be synthesised, very little is known about the types and outcomes of interventions. This prevents the optimisation of social work interventions in outdoor settings. Consequently, a scoping review of peer-reviewed research published from 2008 to 2018 was undertaken to examine how nature is being used in psychosocial interventions wi… Show more

“…However, opportunities for environmental practice appeared to have developed through disaster response work and community practices, which while anthropocentric, support social workers to make connections between their practice and the natural world. Nature-based practices also appeal to human-centred practice because of the benefits for the health and well-being of social work clients (Boddy et al, 2021; Pryor et al, 2005; Tretter and Löffler-Stastka, 2019). Rather than challenging dominant anthropocentric ideas, nature-based practices can create a context where appreciation and respect for the natural world is enhanced as people are exposed to nature.…”

“…For this reason, this model is not only situated in activism but also in self-care. Given the physical and mental health benefits of nature (Boddy et al, 2021), finding self-care outdoors is useful for continuing to practise ecosocial work on macro, mezzo and micro levels.…”

“…Although research has been conducted regarding the use NBAs amongst by AHPs [17,27,[40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53], to our knowledge only three studies have examined AHPs use of these NBAs outside of a research setting [34,54,55]. Those three studies examined occupational therapists and physiotherapists engaging in nature-based rehabilitation with people with acquired brain injuries [34], social workers using NBAs with children and parents living in shelters [54], and occupational therapists using gardening or garden-related activities [55].…”
