Van Thi Diep, PhD, is a former landscape architect turned environmental philosopher, humanities researcher, and artist. As an intuitive empath seeking to understand knowledge beyond traditional academic siloes, her work explores the intersectionality between nature, culture, epistemology, and spirituality. With additional training in ecopsychology, forest therapy, and human design, she integrates intellectualism with somatic wisdom into a wholistic framework for understanding the human-nature relationship.
