Abstract

This study explores the potential of neighbourhood parks in reducing stress and promoting mental well-being in urban settings. Through in-depth interviews with experts in clinical psychology, neuropsychology, and landscape architecture, landscape attributes influencing psychological well-being were identified. Thematic analysis revealed the importance of human-centred design and incorporating elements that inspire enthusiasm for cognitive restoration. The study resulted in a salutogenic and cognitive landscape framework that integrating cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) into the park design. This framework offers valuable insights and practical guidance for creating healing spaces in neighbourhood parks, catering to physical and psychological needs in urban environments.
