Walk and Talk Therapy

Trapped. Paralyzed. Struggling to move.

You feel it in your heart, your soul, your body, your life.

You’ve thought about counseling before but stopped before making the call – because the mere thought of sitting and talking for an hour with no distractions made you cringe.

You crave movement. It would be best if you had movement. Movement helps you process everything in your life.

You long for forward movement in every area of your life. But how?

Lace up your shoes and join me on the trail!

You’ve heard of talk therapy. This is talk therapy – with the added element of movement you so desperately need. And where better than nature to combine them?

Nature soothes the soul, reduces anxiety, alleviates depression, and improves cardiovascular and immune function.

The benefits are obvious – as little as 40 minutes in nature does the body, mind, and soul good. If you’re chronically stressed – which isn’t uncommon – this could be the winning modality for you.

Welcome to the best of both worlds!

In Japan, medical doctors actually prescribe Shinrin-Yoku (Forest Bathing), an evidence-based wellness practice that promotes lower stress by reducing cortisol, anxiety, and depression – improving overall health.

Walk and Talk therapy interweaves the joy of experiencing nature and the healing of receiving counseling support. It promotes true wellness all the way around.

Whether you can’t get enough of the beautiful Colorado countryside or you prefer an urban walk – any outdoor setting matters and has lasting positive effects.

How does this work?

It’s simple!

We’ll agree upon a setting – a suitable urban area or trail – as the “outdoor office” for our session during daytime hours. I advise we stick to lower elevation trails/bike paths for ease of engaging and talking.

We’ll meet at the trailhead and begin our counseling walk. 25 minutes into the process, we’ll sit in nature for 5 minutes. We’ll then continue our work until we have returned to the trailhead.

Before leaving, we’ll arrange our next session time and schedule accordingly.

Reach out today (720) 891-5347, and let’s hit the trails.
