Climate anxiety describes the intense emotional reaction that many people have to the impacts of climate change. Many people find it difficult to cope with the events and discourse around a warming climate. With natural disasters negatively impacting people’s lives, the divisive politicization of the topic, and a strong call for advocacy, it’s common to feel overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, frustrated, disappointed, or hopeless. When these emotions begin to impact your daily life, this is called climate anxiety.
While many social workers address anxiety and other uncomfortable emotions in their practice, social workers who specialize in climate anxiety have a deep understanding of how these concerns can result in decreased mental health. By providing a space to talk about climate worries, ecotherapists help clients cope with despair and make connections to other social justice movements.
