Climate change is a reality and threatens the future of the Earth. This can cause psychological impacts on some people, a phenomenon which is known as eco-anxiety. This webinar is designed to equip you with the knowledge and tools to help clients navigate the emotional toll of climate change. As more people experience anxiety, grief, and existential distress related to environmental crises, therapists must be prepared to address these concerns with sensitivity and skill. This workshop will explore the psychological impact of eco-anxiety, interweaving concepts from trauma-informed care, existential therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions. You will gain practical strategies for validating client concerns, fostering resilience, and helping individuals transform distress into meaningful action. Through case discussions and experiential exercises, you will leave with a deeper understanding of how to support clients in finding balance between acknowledging ecological realities and maintaining emotional well-being.

Upon completion of the webinar, participants will be able to:

Define eco-anxiety and climate grief.
Identify the symptoms of climate grief.
Describe how to assist clients in managing symptoms of eco-anxiety and climate grief.
