Walk and Talk Therapy is the client and the therapist walking outside during therapy instead of sitting inside an office.

Many clients say that Walk and Talk Therapy is a more relaxed environment than the counseling office. Walking while sharing your struggles and life situations can also be meditative. Walk and Talk Therapy encourages healthy activity for adults and teens.

There are several reasons why Walk and Talk Therapy is a great approach:

1. It gets you moving—both literally and figuratively.
2.  It is conducted outdoors; being in nature can be meditative and grounding.
3. It is an excellent choice for clients with several different kinds of issues. Clients who are going through a life transition, have anxiety, are experiencing some kind of loss or grief, as well as other challenges tend to do very well with Walk Talk Therapy.
4. You set the pace of the session. If you prefer a meditative, relaxing session of walking or a more active, fast-paced session, I will match your pace.
5. Research studies have shown that physical activity can enhance the mental and physical health of clients.  Physical activity has also been shown to reduce levels of depression and anxiety and can help to prevent depressive symptoms.
