Hello
Ecotherapist | Supervisor | Founder of Natural Self Ecotherapy
About Michéal
Michéal is a highly experienced eco-therapist, supervisor, and educator with over 30 years’ experience working therapeutically with individuals, groups, and communities. His approach weaves together depth psychology, ecopsychology, and trauma-informed practice — offering a grounded pathway for healing, growth, and reconnection with nature.
As co-founder of the Natural Academy and developer of the Natural Self Ecotherapy (NSET) model, Michéal’s work is rooted in the understanding that we are nature — and that healing arises through restoring our belonging to the wider living world. His practice is shaped by compassion, curiosity, and reciprocity, drawing on many years of experience as a counsellor, supervisor, and facilitator in mental health, community and NHS settings.

How I Can Support You
Sessions are guided by the NSET model — a trauma-informed, ecocentric approach developed through the Natural Academy. This framework integrates psychological depth, ecological awareness, and relational safety, supporting clients to work through:
-
Anxiety, stress, or burnout
-
Life transitions and loss
-
Recovery from trauma
-
Feelings of disconnection, meaninglessness or overwhelm
-
Desire for personal or spiritual growth through nature
Michéal works relationally, blending talking therapy with guided experience in nature — whether walking, sitting, or engaging in reflective processes with the land itself.
Sessions may take place at Ham Green Outdoor Centre in one of our tranquil spaces:
SkyView Roundhouse |Lakeside Sanctuary | The Nest therapy room with garden access.
Supervision & Mentoring
Michéal also offers ecotherapy supervision and mentoring for practitioners, counsellors, and trainees seeking to deepen their work within nature-based and ecocentric practice.
Supervision sessions are reflective, relational, and supportive — integrating both personal and professional development through the lens of the Natural Self model and the NSET Ethical Framework

“Healing happens when we remember our place within the web of life. Nature reminds us — we are not separate, we are part of a living whole.”
