Mona Mansour
MD, MS, Professor of Pediatrics
Mona is a board-certified primary care pediatrician with 35 years of experience caring for at-risk youth and families, as well as redesigning health care systems to expand access, improve quality, and reduce disparities.
Throughout her career, she has championed preventive models of care that help children and families thrive and reach their full potential. Wellness, prevention, and whole-person care have always been at the heart of her professional mission.
Through a series of meaningful experiences that aligned at just the right time, Mona became a certified forest therapy guide and Nature as Medicine provider through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy (ANFT) and the Nature Systems Institute (NSI). A lifelong lover of the outdoors, she has always understood the restorative power of time in nature. Her training deepened that connection and strengthened her belief in nature as a profound source of healing.
Today, Mona integrates her clinical expertise with evidence-based nature practices to support emotional, physical, and mental well-being. Research shows that time in nature can reduce stress hormones, lower blood pressure, improve mood, enhance focus, strengthen the immune system, and build resilience. Mona’s work helps clients tap into these benefits through intentional, guided experiences that foster calm, connection, and a renewed sense of balance.
She created Wild and Well, LLC to bring nature-based wellness services to her community and to make the healing power of the natural world more accessible to all.
Mona currently offers guided forest therapy walks for individuals, community groups, and health care teams or organizations. Her current focus is on youth ages 14 and older and adults, with plans to expand to younger age groups in the future. She brings both her clinical background and her operational leadership experience to every session, creating safe, supportive, and transformative opportunities for people to reconnect with themselves and the natural world.
