About Us
Forest Medicine provides an integrative approach to wellness, medicine and mental health. We support people who have experienced trauma to access medicine-assisted psychotherapy and integration, promoting individual healing by reconnecting with self, spirit, tribe and nature.
We offer medicine-assisted psychotherapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Treatment-Resistant Depression, within the Australian regulatory framework. Our highly skilled, multidisciplinary team delivers innovative, evidence-based care at the intersection of clinical science and nature, for people who have exhausted other traditional therapies.
Nature-Based
Forest environments positively impact our physical and psychological health further than any standard clinical setting.
Compassionate
Helping people to develop self-compassion and emotional regulation - skills that go beyond in-practice sessions.
Trauma-Informed
Recognising the widespread impact of trauma, and focusing on safety, trust, empowerment, and collaboration to facilitate healing.
Somatic Experiences
Focusing on the mind-body connection, recognising that trauma and stress are stored physically in our bodies.
Medicine-Assisted Psychotherapy in Australia
Forest Medicine provides assessment, psychotherapy and mental health care within established professional, ethical and regulatory frameworks. Our approach emphasises patient safety, informed consent, clinical governance and evidence-informed practice.
Where clinically appropriate and legally permitted, care may involve consideration of treatment pathways available to authorised medical practitioners under Australian regulatory frameworks. Any treatment decisions are made following comprehensive clinical assessment and in accordance with applicable legal and professional requirements.
Our practice integrates contemporary therapeutic approaches with an appreciation of traditional and culturally informed healing perspectives, while maintaining the standards of safety, oversight and professionalism expected of a specialist healthcare service.
