Walk and Talk Coaching Sessions

Our Walk and Talk Coaching sessions take place in and around the beautiful Essex countryside. 

Walking side by side is especially beneficial for anyone who is socially anxious, who struggles initially to open up or is uncomfortable with direct eye contact.

The conversation and pace will be led by you, but we will be in a natural and relaxed environment. By harnessing the healing power of nature, physical activity, and open conversation, this approach offers a holistic and refreshing way to address challenges.

Scientists agree that spending time outdoors helps combat anxiety and stress, lowers blood pressure and improves memory. 

We would normally do a circular walk and talk, agreeing on the distance, pace and location that is most suitable for you. Clients can then go back to the location in between sessions and practice the tools and strategies that help them to best cope.

Shorter Walk and Talks are of course possible too, when we may spend our session together on a bench (or even sheltering in a coffee shop, should the weather not be so great). 

This unique form of therapy combines the benefits of physical activity with the healing power of conversation, offering a refreshing and effective alternative to traditional indoor therapy sessions.

I use a variety of interventions and techniques including heart-centered Emotional Change Therapy, NeuroLinguistic Programming, Timeline Therapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.

Many clients report they find it easier to open up, reflect and move on, when walking and talking side by side, in a beautiful natural environment. 

Sessions last between 60 and 90 minutes
