Quercus Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-5294-3765-2 (ISBN)
If you ever feel dread as you doomscroll news stories about climate change, or despair when you think about the world we are leaving to future generations, you are not alone. With environmental disasters mounting, predictions for the future of our planet worsening, and solutions feeling like a drop in a polluted ocean, climate anxiety is one of the biggest mental health threats of our time.
Surviving Climate Anxiety is the essential guide to coping with the psychological toll of persistent environmental crisis.
In this helpful and ground-breaking book, the world's leading climate anxiety expert, psychologist Dr Thomas Doherty, shares the pioneering techniques he has developed to help you to:
Reclaim your nervous system: manage your thoughts, feelings, and stress about climate change
Clarify your environmental identity: establish your history, values, and connection to the natural world
Overcome fear of climate disasters and tend to eco-depression and grief
Find realistic reasons for hope and ways to take meaningful action
Packed with practical, research-backed tips and dozens of stories - from the geologist haunted by images of melting glaciers, to the young couple agonizing over whether to bring a child into a world on fire, to a twenty-something wondering how to believe in the future - Surviving Climate Anxiety provides the tools to cope, heal, and flourish, even in these challenging times.
Dr Thomas Doherty is a globally recognised clinical and environmental psychologist. His research on nature and environmental-related psychology inspired the New York Times to call him 'the most prominent advocate of a growing discipline known as ecopsychology'. He is a regular guest speaker at conferences and panels worldwide on the connection between climate change and mental health. He has conducted workshops and training for organisations as diverse as the US National Park Service, the New Zealand Department of Conservation, The California Department of Health and the Association of Zoos and Acquariums. Dr Doherty is also the creator of the podcast 'Climate Change and Happiness' which he co-hosts with his Finnish colleague, climate emotions researcher Pani Pihkala. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
