Walk and Talk Therapy is nothing new, but became more popular because of Covid.

It is a very useful alternative to sitting in a counselling room especially for neurodivergent or anxious clients who may find the intensity of sitting face to face with someone overwhelming. The quality of the counselling is no less, but being outdoors has many advantages.

Counselling in the open air combined with a walk connecting with nature and wildlife. You set the pace, and if you want to stop and look at something, or sit on a bench, that’s fine.

Walk and Talk Therapy feels more natural and makes talking easier and thoughts flow better. The quality of the counselling is no different, but being outdoors has many advantages:

Exercise helps release endorphins which can help improve your mood and boost your energy levels. It also helps reduce anxiety, stress and depression.

Going for a walk and connecting with nature and wildlife is well documented to have therapeutic effects, and combining this with counselling can help you literally move forward.
