Amelia Best

Amelia Best is a horticultural therapist and psychotherapist based in Melbourne, Australia. At 47, she combines her passion for gardening with therapeutic practices, helping individuals, including children and families at the Royal Children’s Hospital, improve their mental health through gardening. Her work was deeply influenced by the loss of her brother, Andy, which led her to explore the therapeutic benefits of nature and gardening as a means of coping with grief and promoting well-being.
