Our Journey Through the Desert

Our Programs

Desert Therapy was founded from a deep-rooted connection to the desert—built on childhood memories that evolved into lifelong traditions.

Growing up spending time off-roading, camping, and exploring the desert not only created unforgettable bonds with family and friends but also laid the foundation for our mental wellness programs focused on Ecotherapy.

These experiences shaped a strong sense of community, responsibility, and respect for the land, highlighting the importance of healing in nature and the benefits of nature-based therapy.
