Therapy for Eco-Grief & Eco-Anxiety in Seattle & Washington State

Find grounding in a changing world

Hannah Martin, LMHC

You feel it deep in your body—grief, overwhelm, anger, and powerlessness. The weight of the climate crisis isn’t just an abstract idea; it’s something you carry every day. You wonder how to keep going, how to hold the pain without shutting down.

You’re not alone. And you don’t have to hold this alone.

Eco-Grief & Eco-Anxiety therapy helps you:

  • Navigate feelings of anxiety, sadness, and despair

  • Find ways to process grief without feeling paralyzed

  • Reconnect with what brings you meaning and purpose

  • Build resilience so you can stay engaged without burning out

Is This You?

You feel overwhelmed by the state of the world and the uncertainty of the future.
You struggle with despair, guilt, or exhaustion when thinking about the climate crisis.
You want to stay engaged, but fear burnout or emotional shutdown.

A Space to Hold Grief Without Losing Yourself

It’s Okay to Feel This Way.

Grieving what’s being lost is a natural, human response. But you don’t have to stay stuck in despair. Through guided support, we’ll create space for your emotions while helping you find strength, connection, and meaning.

How It Works

  • Step 1: Acknowledge and honor your feelings

    We begin by naming and holding space for what you’re carrying—without judgment, without needing to fix it. You have the option to do this work outside in nature which can bring even more power to the work as you connect relationally with the earth.

  • Step 2: Regulate and restore

    Using somatic and nervous system-based practices, we’ll help your body process the grief so it doesn’t stay stuck. We can do this through walking, exploring, or cold water therapy practices as well.

  • Step 3: Reconnect to meaning & community

    You’ll explore what brings you hope, how to stay engaged in ways that feel sustainable and authentic to you, and how to reconnect with the beauty still present in the world.

  • Step 4: Move forward with resilience

    Together, we’ll find ways for you to integrate these practices, so you can navigate the challenges ahead with more clarity, steadiness, and inner strength.
