Walk-and-Talk
We meet outside and walk for session. A simple alternative to the traditional office session, many clients find it more comfortable to walk alongside each other than to sit face-to-face.What about bad weather?
Not a problem. If you would like to walk and talk, a warm coat or umbrella works just fine! As Alfred Wainwright said, “There's no such thing as bad weather, just unsuitable clothing.”Is this a workout?
No. This is slow or moderate walking - not a workout, not fast walking. There is nothing physically strenuous about the session.What are the benefits of walk and talk therapy?
Gentle bilateral movement in a natural outdoor setting - a literal walk in the park - produces physiological and psychological relaxation, reduces stress, and promotes feelings of well being.
For people who feel stuck, walk-and-talk sessions can facilitate forward movement and momentum and the ability to see new perspectives.
