Adventure therapy doesn't need to be a practice in the wilderness. But let's not discount the value of recreation either. Do it intentionally, think about what you're getting out of it, think about what the outcome for you is.
Imagine a therapy session that takes you out of the office and into the great outdoors. That's exactly what Sierra Tucson's experts, Dr. Chris Sharp and Joanne Mikovic, are talking about in this episode of 'Let's Talk: Mind, Body, Spirit'. Adventure therapy is a unique form of experiential psychotherapy where participants engage in activities like ropes courses, problem-solving tasks, and other outdoor challenges.
But it's not just about physical activity; it's about pushing boundaries and learning to trust yourself and others in a safe, supervised environment. Dr. Sharp and Mikovic dive into how these activities can help individuals break out of their comfort zones and apply the skills they learn to everyday life. They also touch on the importance of mindfulness and intentionality during these adventures, sharing their own experiences from Sierra Tucson, a place known for its clinical excellence and compassionate care.
Whether you're looking to try something new for your mental health or simply curious about alternative therapies, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how nature and adventure can be powerful tools for growth and healing.
