therapeutic ecosystems

Therapeutic ecosystems refer to interconnected environments—such as homes, schools, workplaces, or communities—that support an individual’s mental and emotional well-being. They recognize that healing and growth are influenced not just by direct therapy but also by the relationships, routines, and resources within these surroundings. By fostering positive, supportive interactions and removing stressors, therapeutic ecosystems create a holistic space where individuals can recover, develop resilience, and thrive. Essentially, it’s about understanding and optimizing all parts of someone’s environment to promote overall mental health.
