Plans to include Ecopsychology module in MA programme
Psychotherapy has traditionally located human suffering in broken relationships with other humans, and searched for causes in intrapsychic phenomena as well as reparative human relationships. An Ecopsychology perspective suggests that suffering arises out of broken relationships to the natural world – what Theodore Roszak calls “repression of cosmic empathy” – and that a healing connection to the non-human world and our natural environment are crucial to our psychological well being. As we begin to face the consequences of what we have done to our Earth home, what seeps into our consciousness is the grief and terror at the unprecedented loss of life on our planet now, and in the generations to follow us. Ecopsychology is the work of the moment.
