What is a forest therapy guide?

A Forest Therapy Guide is a trained professional who leads individuals or groups through immersive, sensory-based experiences in nature to promote well-being. They facilitate slow, mindful walks and suggest activities that encourage deep connection with the natural environment. Unlike hiking or nature education, forest therapy focuses on relaxation, stress reduction, and overall mental and physical health benefits. Guides create a safe and supportive space for participants, allowing them to engage with nature in a meaningful and restorative way.

What does a forest therapy guide do?

A typical day for a Forest Therapy Guide involves preparing for and leading guided walks or immersive nature experiences, planning routes, and ensuring all safety protocols are in place. You may spend your time crafting sessions that include mindful activities, sensory invitations, and discussions, while adapting to group needs and environmental changes. Guides also regularly coordinate with parks staff, maintain equipment, and handle scheduling or participant communication. The role is highly interactive, often involving solo work during the walks but requiring collaboration during event planning and community outreach. Flexibility and a love for the outdoors are essential, as work is often conducted in varying weather conditions and natural environments.
