Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy in Clinical Practice – 12 hours
There are 12 sessions of materials in the workbook that accompanies the Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy Program. All of the materials within the workbook are reproduced in this course. This is the workbook used to facilitate the program. There is usually at least one experiential exercise in each session. When completing the workbook materials, be sure to do the experiential exercises as well so that you will be familiar with the exercises you will be teaching.

When you begin facilitating your own groups, you may wish to have your students purchase the workbook as a handy reference.

Mindfulness: An Introduction – 5 hours
This module of the course contains a clinical introduction to the skills of mindfulness. This module also guides you through several experiential exercises in mindfulness. Be sure to practice each exercise at least once on your own so you will be familiar with how to guide your students through the program.

Ecotherapy: An Introduction – 5 hours
There are five one-hour instructional videos for this module of the course and five experiential exercises that are about an hour in duration for each exercise. This portion of the course covers some of the current research regarding ecotherapy as well as introducing you to some techniques used in ecotherapy.

Running a Successful Group – 10 hours
There are two parts for this course. Part A is general information on group facilitation for any group. There are five one-hour video presentations for this part of the course. Part B contains information specific to facilitating a Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy group. All of this reading material is included in Part B of the course. Once you have reviewed and studied all the materials in Part A and Part B, as well as all of the other lessons in the previous modules, you will be ready to take the final exam.

Once you have completed all the course materials and passed the final exam with a score of 80% or higher, your Certificate of Completion will be generated on the quiz page under the “PRINT YOUR CERTIFICATE” button.

There is a course evaluation and final exam. You will have three attempts to achieve a passing score on the final. You must pass with at least 80% or higher before a certificate will be issued.

Once you have successfully completed all four courses/modules of the certification program, you will be issued a certification naming you as a certified facilitator of Mindfulness-Based Ecotherapy.
