Would you like to take your counselling session outdoors into the fresh air and nature?
Bringing your favourite four-legged friend too?
We can!
There is more and more research emerging about both the mental and physical benefits of being out in nature; reducing anxiety, reducing depression, helping with seasonal affective disorder, lowering blood pressure, reducing stress and anger and helping to improve mood and cognitive function. A recent study looking at neighbourhoods in Milton Keynes, Luton and Bedford found that rates of anxiety and depression were lower, when at least 20-35% of land around houses comprises of trees and shrubs. Even having a view of greenery from a hospital bed, can help you recover quicker!
Walk-and-talk counselling can be a great way for those who find the conventional counselling setting too confining, awkward, uninspiring or uncomfortable. Also great for those who simply love being out in nature, whilst walking side by side with your counsellor.
Additionally, the movement that comes with walk-and-talk counselling can be particularly beneficial when working with anger or anxiety.
I offer 30-minute or one hour walks along local footpaths, through the beautiful Cheshire countryside. Longer walks are also available upon request. Walks where we stick to pavements are also possible.
A few points to note ...
