Walking Therapy

Walking Therapy is talking therapy outdoors. Instead of sitting in Blend Centre we talk and walk. I realised that for some people sitting in a therapy room, talking opposite a therapist can be unsettling and a little scary. Whereas walking side by side can allow for conversation to flow more freely.

How does it work?

Usually, we meet for the first session either online or at blend where we can discuss, like we would in normal therapy, confidentiality, my approach and you can ask me any questions. We discuss how we navigate other walkers and where we could like to meet as well as what to we will do if the weather is particularly bad. You might choose to mix up a bit of walking therapy with indoor sessions in blend we find a way that works best for you.

Walking together outside can be calming and more grounding and those who like dogs, my Labrador, Chunk comes with us.
