Increasingly landscape architects, garden designers, and healthcare professionals are asked to create gardens that meet the physical, psychological, emotional, and social needs of a wide range of users. Landscape architect Daniel Winterbottom and occupational therapist Amy Wagenfeld present a collaborative approach that successfully translates the evidence-based principles of therapeutic design into practice using case studies from around the world. This practical guide demonstrates how gardens support learning, movement, well-being, and mental and psychological health. This second edition has been thoroughly updated throughout to include pandemic and mental health design, trauma-responsive design, designing for neurodivergence, and more. Beautifully designed with over 250 color images throughout, it also includes chapter introductions, summaries, case studies, and personal vignettes. This book is essential for professionals and students in landscape architecture, planning, design, healthcare, and mental health fields.
