Based in Bristol, UK, I am available for consultations in person, over the phone, or via Skype.

The aim of ecocounselling is not to turn anyone into environmentalists, vegans, vegetarians, or sandal wearing individuals. Instead, the goal of ecocounselling is to draw people’s attention to their relationship with the natural world in order to discover more about who they are.

I am a graduate member of The British Psychological Society and have experience dealing with such issues as:

  • Addictions
  • Grief
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Bipolar
  • Low Self-esteem
  • Imposter Syndrome
  • PTSD
  • Relationships
  • Sexual Orientation & Gender Issues
  • General Self-discovery
  • Life Changes

I use an eclectic style of working with my clients, depending on need and the issues being presented.  Along with Ecocounselling, these might include:

  • Gestalt click for definition
  • Ecofeminism click for definition
  • Narrative Therapy click for definition
  • An educational Approach (reading & writing papers)
  • Experiencing a Sense of Place & Journaling
  • Expressive Artwork
  • Dream Journaling
  • Animal Assisted Therapy click for definition
  • Horticultural Therapy click for definition
  • Genograms click for definition
  • Meditation

As an eco-counsellor Lorraine Fish’s gentle guidance and graceful persistence helped me to re-member and begin to embody my own birth right: a deep and nourishing connection with something much larger than myself alone: the world. This not only helped to break a life-long cycle of depression, it has become the solid ground on which I stand and an immensely valuable resource as I continue to do my work in and for the world.

I am also available for workshops and lectures on the topic of Ecopsychology, Ecocounselling, and Addiction. Background and skills:

  • Author of: Nature, Culture, & Abnormal Appetites: An Ecopsychological Analysis of Addiction
  • Leading specialist in Ecopsychology and Addiction
  • Practising as an Ecocounsellor for 10 years
  • Teaching Psychology, Ecopsychology & Applied Ecopsychology Courses
  • Workshop facilitator for Ecopsychology related events
  • Guest Speaking on the topic of Ecopsychology

I met Lorraine at a conference when we were both grad students cobbling together ecopsychology programs at our respective institutions. I was impressed then by her combination of wise intellectual thought and down-to-earth sense of humour. Many years later, I still am. Tina Fields, PhD
