UnMasking Marina Robb - Mental Health Pioneer

UnMasking the Feminine

Marina was born to English / Italian parents but grew up in the UK. Her Dad's job took her parents away so she was sent to boarding school. She was not a model student and struggled to feel safe or settled. And in her late teens she had a psychotic episode that ended up with her being sectioned. It was her early life journey with mental health problems that in many ways shaped her, but it was the womens therapy circle who supported her and gave her hope was fundamental to her longer term wellbeing.
Marina's inside knowledge on mental health challenges has shaped a woman who was also deeply connected to the land, and the healing potential that comes when we listen and connect.
She is now the Director of Circle of Life Rediscovery, a Community Interest Company that helps youngsters with mental health challenges, has pioneered Nature Programs in the NHS and Health Sector. She has co-authored two books, one of which "Learning with Nature" is the go to book for Forest School and Outdoor Practitioners, and is also the Director of the Outdoor Teacher online training program.
She has led a fascinating life, and her work dances between reverence for mother earth and how nature can help people to connect, heal and feel good about themselves.
