Shelagh inspires healthcare professionals to engage with nearby nature for self-care, and to share this evidence-based practice with their peeps for health promotion and therapeutic intervention.
She's a professionally registered Horticultural Therapist with the CHTA in Canada and the AHTA in the United States, and holds a Masters degree in Environmental Education and Communication.
For 23 years, Shelagh developed and led therapeutic garden programs for care home residents, while supervising and mentoring many students and volunteers. She taught people with mental health challenges how to grow their own food, collaborated on the design of restorative and enabling gardens, and taught a certificate program she created for budding horticultural therapists.
In addition, she’s given 100+ live multi-media presentations and workshops to healthcare, community, and professional organizations.
Vancouver, Canada is Shelagh's local nature playground, and she loves to travel on the back roads of British Columbia with her husband and their tiny Trillium trailer.
"Thank you for the workshop, Shelagh! It was very educational and helpful, packed with great suggestions and ideas that can be easily put in practice right away. Loved it!"
