About this Event

Looking to take some time for yourself to discuss your mental health and be in nature? You've found the right place! Collaborative InSights offers a low cost community mental health support group at The Urban Farm at Aldersgate once a month.

This support group is open to anyone who:

  • Experiences anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and other mood disorders
  • Is looking for a connection to nature and it's healing powers
  • Wants to be in community with others who are looking for support

Please note, this group is only open to adults 18+ is this is not a therapy group. This group is led by licensed clinical social workers, however this is a general support group for mental health.

This group is an inclusive space for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ folx. We believe that ALL folx need safe and supportive space to be in nature!

Ecotherapy is a nature-based form of psychotherapy, led by licensed mental health providers. While practicing Ecotherapy, you will be prompted to explore your mental health in relation to different elements that exist in nature. You will learn how to integrate these prompts into your daily routine to support mindfulness, coping during tough times, and to improve your overall outlook on life.

Collaborative InSights, Therapy & Consultation is a holistic psychotherapy practice located in Charlotte, NC. We aim to support community members and organizations by creating awareness and practice of cultural and indigenous practices such as Ecotherapy, Yoga, Reiki, and mindfulness.

Carolina Farm Trust manages a network of urban farms in the Charlotte Metro with the goal of making the area a global leader in sustainability by feeding the region with food from local farms. The Aldersgate Farm serves as a food source and learning lab for Charlotte’s east side. It has a farm stand with seasonal produce grown on the farm as well as other products, such as meat and eggs, from farms nearby. Both EBT and Snap are accepted here, making the farm truly a resource for all. The farm is a hub for community engagement, as it provides opportunities for young students and adults alike to learn about where their food comes from. It also hosts farm-to-table events, cooking demonstrations, and other entertainment. Everyone deserves access to healthy, fresh food. The Aldersgate farm aims to serve residents of East Charlotte as a convenient, reliable source of nutrition.


ADA Accessibility: The farm is not wheelchair accessible. Please contact the event organizer for additional accommodation questions or needs.
