About Homegrown Therapy Alaska

We are pediatric therapists treating youth of all ages within Anchorage’s awesome natural places. Learn more about Homegrown Therapy Alaska!

Different approaches to nature-based therapy include engagement with plants, animals, wilderness settings, nature-focused arts and crafts, and play in natural environments and/or with natural materials. While nature-based therapy can be practiced indoors as well as outdoors, the focus always includes nature engagement in some form for the purpose of achieving therapeutic goals. Positive outcomes include improved socio-emotional functioning and increased connectedness to nature.
