Walk + Talk Therapy
What is Walk + Talk Therapy?
Walk + Talk Therapy is exactly what it sounds like - you and I will leave the traditional setting behind and conduct our therapy session outside while walking.
​
​
Why Walk + Talk Therapy?
Integrating movement in therapy will activate different areas of your brain and strengthen your mind-body connection. This will enable you to feel more grounded, release physical tension, increase creativity and deeper thinking, and allow you to feel more comfortable when sharing.
Walk + Talk Therapy can be helpful for couples and individuals working through anxiety, depression, life transitions, and loss.
This can also benefit you if traditional therapy was not a good fit and you are looking for an alternative.
​
What are the benefits of Walk + Talk Therapy?
