Kim Rahebi, a dedicated student from Harris College, is set to defend her dissertation on Earth Day, a fitting occasion given the environmental themes of her research. Her work intricately weaves together the realms of mental health and ecological stewardship, focusing particularly on the fascinating world of garden frogs.
Rahebi's research delves into the concept of creation care, emphasizing the importance of nurturing our environment as a means to enhance mental well-being. By examining the connections between nature and mental health, she aims to shed light on how engaging with the natural world can serve as a therapeutic tool.
Additionally, her involvement with RxPLORE, a program that promotes outdoor experiences for mental health benefits, underscores her commitment to the intersection of environmental consciousness and psychological wellness. As she prepares to present her findings, Rahebi hopes to inspire others to recognize the profound impact that caring for our planet can have on individual and collective mental health.
