Healing Doesn’t
Have to Sit Still.
WALK AND TALK THERAPY
Moving your body can create space for your thoughts to move, too. Walk and talk therapy brings the therapeutic process outdoors, creating a natural setting to work through anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and life transitions.
In-person sessions available along Sligo Creek Parkway.
Therapy.
In Nature.
In Motion.
Therapy doesn't always have to happen sitting across from someone in an office. For some people, walking side by side can make conversation feel more natural and create space to think, reflect, and process.
Walk and talk therapy combines the support of a traditional therapy session with gentle movement and time outdoors.
SOMETIMES, IT HELPS TO KEEP MOVING.
Walk and talk therapy may help with:
Anxiety & Stress
Create space to
slow down, process
what's weighing
on you, and reconnect
with the present.
Depression
Engage in therapeutic work in an environment that incorporates movement, fresh air, and connection with your surroundings.
Grief & Loss
Have room to process change and loss at your own pace without feeling confined to a traditional therapy room.
Life Transitions
Work through uncertainty, changing relationships, retirement, caregiving, identity shifts, or other significant seasons of life.
A Different Setting Can
Change the Conversation.
Walking side by side can feel different from sitting face to face. The rhythm of movement and the surrounding environment may make it easier to talk, reflect, tolerate pauses, or approach difficult conversations.
You’re still receiving therapy. The setting simply changes.

We Meet at Sligo Creek
Sessions take place along an agreed-upon route in the Sligo Creek Parkway area.
We Walk & Talk
Your session unfolds much like traditional therapy, with the addition of gentle movement and the natural environment around you.
We Work at Your Pace
