You want to use natural spaces professionally for therapeutic interventions.
Social Workers, Educators, Adventure & Outdoor Educators, Teacher
You are already working practically or would like to professionalize your Adventure & Nature Therapy work. Instead of random effects, you want to work in a planned and effective manner using Adventure & Nature Therapy methods.

Psychotherapists, Occupational/ Logo/ Physio Therapists, Coaches
You are already working in the healthcare sector (or plan to do so), for example in rehabilitation or specialist clinics, and have specific therapeutic or therapy-supporting assignments that require clinical knowledge.
You would like to deepen your clinical knowledge and apply it specifically in an Adventure & Nature Therapy context.

As a Mental Health Expert, you would like to expand your intervention options.
You want to deepen your clinical knowledge and establish Adventure & Nature Therapy responsibly, professionally and independently in your field of work – also as a specialist or specialty therapist.
This are common misunderstandings
There is no certification
In the US, the AEE already offers a formal certification in Adventure Therapy. The ATI training structure, with its three qualification levels (Levels 1–3), is designed to enable you to later obtain recognition and certification in the US. We maintain direct contact with the AEE Board of Directors and continuously adapt our content to current developments.
ANT is not paid by the health system
Yes – in different ways!
The possibilities depend heavily on the respective field of work.
There are also billing models for independent therapists or in health prevention – depending on the framework conditions and target group.
There is no evidence and research that Adventure & Nature Therapy
has a positive effect
The scientific evidence lies primarily in the area of “nature and health”: Studies demonstrate positive effects on the cardiovascular system, stress reduction, strengthening of resilience and psychosocial development through experiencing nature.
Internationally, you can find research under terms such as Adventure Therapy, Wilderness Therapy or Ecotherapy – the effectiveness is well documented there.
As an Adventure & Nature Therapists are very sporty and it’s similar to survival training
No, you don’t have to be in peak physical condition, but you should be in normal physical shape.
Adventure & Nature Therapy is not survival training.
Become an expert in Adventure & Nature Therapy
Even the best training or qualifications are useless if you are unclear about your career prospects.
It’s not just about knowledge; it’s also about your personal vision of your career, what suits you, and your life, culture, and circumstances.

share their thoughts
„In my experiential and nature therapy work with children and young people in a youth welfare facility in the Netherlands, I experience every day how young people open up in nature – how they gain confidence, show their true nature and grow beyond themselves. It’s touching to see how much strength, creativity and vitality they have.“
„When people meet in nature – away from everyday roles, in the open air – there is often space for real togetherness. I am particularly touched by working with patchwork families and couples when they are allowed to rediscover themselves in nature. As a trainer at ATI, I love teaching in very different places – every forest, every landscape speaks its own language and weaves itself into the learning process.“
“As part of the 2025 graduating class, I never imagined I would grow beyond myself in this way and proudly graduate as a certified Clinical Adventure & Nature Therapist (Level 3).
Throughout this journey, nature has been more than a setting – it has been a mirror, a companion, and a powerful source of reflection and transformation.
I’m excited to see where this path leads me – into the world, into nature, and further into myself.”
