Meet Ángela
Facilitator of Ecopsychology and Nature Based Practice
I am a nature lover, wild swimmer, wildwoman. I am an eclectic tapestry weaver who integrates different threads of knowledge and experience.
I hold a BSc in Biochemistry (Universidad de Oviedo, Spain), a MA in Gender Studies (Universidad de Zaragoza, Spain), and a PhD in Hispanic Studies from the University of Sheffield. I am a Forest School Leader, Spanish language and culture tutor, and Ecopsychological Facilitator. I am currently training to become a certified Ecotherapist with The Natural Academy.
I have many years’ experience of working with people from different abilities, backgrounds, nationalities, and the whole range of ages, for varied educational settings and institutions, as well as privately.
I am a First Aider (Outdoor, Paediatric, and Mental Health), and I have an enhanced DBS check.
My approach
My approach to health and wellbeing is holistic and ecocentric. It is deeply linked to our nature connection, the interrelationships between our bodies-minds, the human communities around us, and the more-than-human world that we’re part of.
I facilitate spaces in nature where participants can find, and work on, their resources and resilience in an embodied, experiential, mindful way, in order to enhance their wellbeing and live more fulfilled lives.
My sessions include a variety of nature-based, mindful practices, informed by wide ranging areas such as ecopsychology, deeper nature and spiritual ecology, ecofeminism, arts, science, and practices such as yoga and Qigong, in which I support people to cultivate their wholeness, navigate on the whole spectrum of human emotions in order to find balance, and strengthen their sense of belonging and relationship with, and between, their inner and outer worlds.
