As a certified forest therapy guide with the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy since 2022, Liz combines her extensive teaching background with a profound love for nature, cultivated through her career working as an outdoor educator and wilderness trip guide.
Liz's passion for environmental stewardship, nature connection, and healthy living informs her goal of facilitating opportunities where individuals of all ages and abilities can slow down and be fully present to embrace whatever gifts may be offered by the forest on that day.
Beyond her forest therapy practice, Liz remains active in the field of outdoor recreation by teaching courses, speaking at conferences, and contributing to non-profit organizations as a volunteer.
