WHAT IS ADVENTURE THERAPY?

Adventure Therapy combines easy and fun outdoor adventure activities (like kayaking, rock climbing, biking and coasteering) with group therapy tools like facilitated group discussions, space for personal reflection, and simply spending time in nature with its proven therapeutic benefits.

‘INSPIRE’ ADVENTURE THERAPY PROGRAMME

The ‘Inspire’ programme is run by Adventure Specialties Trust for Auckland-based adults who might be struggling with mental health challenges, like anxiety, stress, depression or burnout. It is facilitated by a qualified mental health professional and an experienced outdoor instructor with the goal of building your health, wellbeing, confidence and connection.

The programme starts on 10th May 2023 and runs every Wednesday (9am – 3:30pm) for 8 weeks. Read more about the programme: www.adventurespecialties.co.nz > Programmes > Inspire
