The Walk & Talk Therapist

01/05/2026

🚶‍♀️‍➡️What is walk and talk therapy? 🌿

👣 It’s a form of talking therapy that takes place outdoors, side-by-side rather than face-to-face.
👣Instead of sitting in a room, we walk together in nature while talking through what’s important to you.
👣Rooted in ecotherapy, it recognises the healing impact of the natural world on our mental health.
👣It also draws on somatic awareness—helping you tune into your body, notice sensations, and understand how emotions show up physically.

The combination of movement, nature, and conversation can feel more relaxed, grounding, and accessible.

For many people, it makes opening up feel that little bit easier.

If you think this could be for you, or you are a therapist wanting to take client work outdoors, please get in touch...... its an amazing way to work!!!

Therapy doesn’t have to look one way—sometimes, it starts with a walk. 🌱

Perfectly put! 🥰

Talking to both a loved one and a counsellor can be highly effective together, but understanding the differences in what each type of support offers can help provide clarity 💙

Share to raise awareness 💙

I am thoroughly enjoying sharing my passion for walk and talk therapy with therapists interested on how they can incorporate this into their practice.

Is there that client you currently support, who you think would benefit from taking the session outdoors?

Is moving outdoors something that you want to do as its supports therapist wellbeing as well as clients?

Why not join in the chat on one of my workshop dates?

As the weather starts to improve, a lot of client identify with a positive change of mood too.☀️😎

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) can make the world feel smaller, heavier, and harder to navigate—but support doesn’t always have to happen within four walls.

Walk and talk therapy offers a gentle, natural way to reconnect. Being outdoors, even in colder months, can help regulate mood, boost energy, and reduce feelings of isolation. Walking side-by-side can also make conversations feel easier and less intense than sitting face-to-face.

Fresh air, movement, and a safe space to talk—sometimes that combination can make a real difference.

If SAD is something that weighs on you, it’s okay to explore different ways of getting support during those months later in the year.

Curious about taking your therapy sessions outdoors—but not sure where to start?

Last call to join me this Saturday for a live 2.5-hour online workshop designed for qualified therapists, trainee therapists who are interested in working more creatively in nature.

🗓 Saturday 2nd May
⏰ 10:00am

We’ll explore how walk and talk / outdoor therapy actually works in practice, answer all the questions you’ve been holding, and gently unpack the common myths that can make it feel intimidating.

By the end, you’ll feel clearer, more confident, and most importantly—like it’s doable.

If you’ve been feeling the pull to step outside the therapy room, this is your invitation to explore it in a supportive, practical space. 🌱

Please message for any more details!!

For anyone who needs to read this at the moment.... we are all beautifully unique.

When you finally find your people… everything clicks.

The way you think, the way you laugh, the things you care about — suddenly they make sense. You’re not “too much,” “too quiet,” or “too different.”

You were just in the wrong room.

The right tribe doesn’t make you shrink — they remind you who you’ve been all along. 🤍

(thank you for for the image!)

A little moment from today 🐑🌿

When clients ask if they can take a picture of the lambs in the field, my answer is always… of course you can.

Therapy doesn’t always look like sitting in a room and talking. Sometimes it’s being outdoors, feeling the sun, hearing birdsong, connecting with animals, moving your body, or simply pausing to take in something gentle and real.

Healing shows up in many forms — gardening, exercise, music, shopping, nature, quiet moments, or the comfort of being close to animals.

What does therapy look like for you? 💛

Step outside, slow down, and let nature hold the space. 🌿

Walk & Talk therapy isn’t just about conversation — it’s about breathing deeper, thinking clearer, and feeling more like yourself again. No walls, no pressure… just fresh air, gentle movement, and the freedom to open up at your own pace.

Sometimes the path forward begins with a simple step outside. Please get in touch if.....

Walking helps with feelings of anxiety... its been scientifically proven!🤓📋

Movement can:
