Planting Seeds of Hope: Our New Tree Planting Initiative
At The Integrative Centre for OCD Therapy, we are dedicated to fostering growth and healing in the lives of our clients. Our commitment goes beyond the therapy room, extending to our beautiful planet as well. We are thrilled to announce our new initiative: planting one tree for every ten therapy sessions, symbolising our clients’ progress and our dedication to a greener world.
Nurturing Growth and Healing
It’s our goal that every therapy session at our centre is a step towards healing and personal growth. Our clients work tirelessly, overcoming challenges and embracing their journeys towards better mental health. We are deeply inspired by our clients. To honour this incredible commitment, we are planting trees through Ecologi, a leading environmental organisation focused on reforestation and carbon offset projects. Each tree planted represents the resilience and progress of our clients. Just as a tree grows stronger with time, so do our clients as they navigate their paths to recovery. This initiative is a living testament to their dedication, symbolising new beginnings and the blossoming of their mental well-being.
Honouring the Therapeutic Relationship
Therapy is a collaborative journey, a partnership between therapist and client built on trust, empathy, and mutual effort. Our tree planting initiative honours this unique relationship. For every ten hours of therapy, we plant a tree to recognise the hard work and dedication of both our clients and therapists. This gesture celebrates the milestones achieved together and the continuous growth fostered through their collaborative efforts. It’s a reminder that, like a tree, the therapeutic relationship is rooted in support and nurtured by ongoing care and commitment.

Committing to Environmental Sustainability
Our dedication to growth and healing extends to our planet. By planting trees, we aim to offset our carbon footprint and contribute to environmental sustainability. Trees play a crucial role in absorbing carbon dioxide, improving air quality, and supporting biodiversity. Through our partnership with Ecologi, we ensure that our contributions are part of a broader effort to combat climate change and restore natural habitats. This initiative aligns with our values of responsibility and care. Just as we support our clients in their personal growth, we are committed to supporting the health and well-being of our planet. Each tree planted is a step towards a greener, healthier future for all.
Thanks to our clients, therapists and those involved with the centre
At The Integrative Centre for OCD Therapy, we believe in the power of small actions to create significant change. By planting trees, we honour our clients’ progress, celebrate the therapeutic relationship, and contribute to a sustainable future.
Together, we can grow, heal, and make a difference.
