It’s flip-flop season, the weather is GORGEOUS, the sun is out, and the birds are singing. Why have your counselling session indoors when we can head out for some mindful movement?

Numerous scientific studies have shown the positive effects of exercise on the brain, especially for people with depression. Walk & Talk therapy can help you turn a corner if you’re experiencing feelings of stress, depression, anxiety or grief. Being outdoors while getting your step counts in and working through your feelings can help you improve your sense wellbeing.

Ask me whether a Walk & Talk Therapy session might be right for you.

Book your Walk & Talk session today! Two locations are now being offered. Click on the links below to check out my availability:
