Walk and Talk

Walk and Talk Therapy is conducted outside while walking side-by-side, and serves as an alternative to traditional therapy conducted in an office setting. The benefits of participating in therapy while engaging in physical activity are numerous. 

• Clients gain mental health benefits from three approaches, rather than just one, which often leads to more rapid gains: 1) nature, 2) the treatment, and 3) exercise.

• Exercise has the dual benefits of improving physical and emotional health. It has been proven to combat weight gain, heart disease, insomnia, anxiety, and depression.

• While therapy promotes emotional well-being, clients can often experience negative emotions during the process, such as stress and anxiety. However, engagement in physical activity allows these emotions to be experienced differently, in a much more comfortable way.  

• As a result of the physical and emotional benefits, clients feel better both during and after sessions.
