She has studied the intersection of nature, spirituality and creative writing in the US and abroad. She follows a path of learning from and supporting indigenous cultures and wisdom-keepers.
Caitlin holds training from the Wilderness Awareness School in Washington and is currently training in Somatic Ecopsychology and is deepening her ecotherapeutic skills.

"We are teaching girls how to have experiences that end in joy and honor, rather than regret, guilt, or shame. Youth need to understand what joy and regret really look like for them. We need to 'reflect and revise' what really matters. This work is so important!"
