Walk & Talk Therapy
Houston, TX

What is it?

Walk and Talk therapy offers the opportunity to experience counseling outside of the therapy office! Bringing nature and movement into sessions can bring a sense of freedom and enrichment to the therapy experience. Many clients have expressed how taking the conversation outdoors facilitates a greater ease in discussing challenging topics and emotions. Sessions take place at Terry Hershey Park, conveniently located in the Memorial area of Houston. In the event of inclement weather or extreme heat, we relocate to Memorial City Mall.

​

Is it confidential?

It does not offer the same level of assured confidentiality as when you’re meeting in a private office. However, from the outside it will appear as though you’re just walking and talking with a friend. You will have a detailed consultation to go over all your concerns before you begin walk and talk therapy.

 

Benefits

• ​Adding movement to traditional therapy can help individuals work through challenges more effectively.

• Walking releases endorphins, which can elevate mood and boost overall well-being.

• Walking side-by-side, rather than sitting face-to-face, can feel less intimidating for those new to counseling.

• Fresh air and being in nature contribute to a greater sense of calm and relaxation.

• Some clients may feel more at ease in an outdoor setting, as it can feel safer and more comforting.

What's the Pace?

You set the pace for each session so you can walk as quickly or slowly as you would like.
