WHAT WE DO
OUR MISSION:
Therapeutic Climbing is all about how this incredible sport can help us heal and grow, mentally and emotionally. Our mission is to connect, create community, foster collaborations, educate, provide resources and contribute to the growing body of research in the climbing therapy field.
Connection
We exist to connect professionals - to each other, to resources, and to inspiration. In addition to the directory, you can look forward to virtual roundtables, happy hours and guest speakers where you can find the support you need to elevate your work.
Community
By connecting professionals, we aim to foster the first community built exclusively for therapeutic rock climbing professionals. You're not alone in this! Climbing trip to Colorado anyone?
Collaborations
We believe that we are stronger together, and that the world is big enough to fit us all. The most amazing results come from combining expertise, knowledge and passion. What could you create with a little support?
Education & Training
As we grow we plan to offer continuing education credits, online and in-person courses. Want to teach with us? Please do! Have a training you'd like us to feature? Send it our way!
Resources
Legal and logistical resources are coming! When you sign up for the directory, you'll get a link to a free legal climbing therapy waiver to use in your practice. Our goal is to offer, collaboration contracts, insurance and other behind the scenes resources for your use.
Research
Our final goal is to create ways to contribute to the growing body of knowledge around therapeutic climbing and mental health outcomes through proven citizen science methods. Want to help? Just get in touch!
