Introducting new walk and talk therapy sessions available in Teesside -
Walk and talk therapy offers a unique approach to mental health treatment by combining movement, nature, and conversation. This method taps into the benefits of physical activity and outdoor exposure, potentially helping to regulate the nervous system. Here are some key benefits of walk and talk therapy:
Reduces Anxiety: Physical activity during therapy sessions helps many clients feel more relaxed and open.
Reduces Depression: Walking while talking can positively impact symptoms of depression.
Improves Emotion Regulation: Engaging with nature and physical movement can help clients better regulate their emotions.
Reduces Stress: The combination of movement and outdoor exposure can significantly reduce stress levels.
Enhances Self-Esteem: Walk and talk therapy can improve self-esteem by providing a comfortable and supportive environment.
Promotes Physical Health: Walking during therapy sessions contributes to overall physical well-being.
Encourages Open Communication: Walking side-by-side can feel more comfortable than face-to-face interactions, reducing anxiety and encouraging open communication.

Walk and talk therapy is an alternative to sit down weekly face to face or online therapy sessions. Sessions take place for 50 minutes and the cost is £50 per session.

About me

My specialism is working with children and adults who have experienced trauma. This may be unresolved from childhood or a more current issue. It could be affecting attachments and relationships or causing anxiety or depression and is something you feel ready to process with a safe and trusted person.

I offer a calming and supportive person centred counselling style meaning whatever you bring to the table is what we will work on together during our sessions. I feel sometimes talking to someone we don’t know can be easier than talking to those closest to us.

Therapy doesn't have to be overwhelming, we can go at the pace you feel comfortable with. I feel like the natural human connection with someone who genuinely cares and listens is where the real progress and self awareness happens during the therapy process.

I qualified from the Northern Guild of counselling and Psychotherapy in 2015 as a Psychotherapeutic counsellor and I have worked in private practice, schools and local charities providing one on one counselling services. I have worked with children, teenagers and adults.

If you’re looking for a non judgmental, grounded and nurturing environment to discuss anything then I would be happy to help.

A free (20 minute) initial assessment will take place to identify your needs. Alternatively I’m happy to have a chat over email. Reviews take place at six week intervals to make sure the needs of the initial assessment are being met.

Sessions last for 50 minutes and can be done over the phone or Microsoft teams. The rate per session is £50.

Please feel free to send an email or message if you have any queries.

I have an enhanced DBS certificate (children and adults) on the update service and I am a registered member of the BACP.
